Given the increasingly pervasive and often uncritical use of notions of identity construction on these subjects, it is of great importance to develop a critical dialogue on these issues in the way which this volume proposes.Jay Lemke, University of Michigan ...a major contribution to the fields it addresses. This book is quite appropriate not only for such areas as language, culture and education, multilingualism and multiculturalism, sociolinguistics, discourse and critical discourse analysis, and language and gender... but also for courses that deal with various aspects of comparative and international education more broadly.Timothy Reagan, University of Connecticut
