Language and Education in Japan: Unequal Access to Bilingualism - Palgrave Studies in Minority Languages and Communities
Y. Kanno
The first critical ethnography of bilingual education in Japan. Based on fieldwork at five different schools, this examines the role of schools in the unequal distribution of bilingualism as cultural capital. It argues that schooling gives children unequal access to bilingualism thus socializing them into different futures.
