AUTHOR

Gonzalez, Norma

SUMMARY

In this book, Norma Gonzalez uses language as a window on the multiple levels of identity construction in children--as well as on the complexities of life in the borderlands--to explore language practices and discourse patterns of Mexican-origin mothers and the language socialization of their children. She shows how the unique discourses that result from the interplay of two cultures shape perceptions of self and community, and how they influence the ways in which children learn and families engage with their children's schools.Gonzalez, Norma is the author of 'I Am My Language Discourses of Women And Children in the Borderlands', published 2006 under ISBN 9780816525492 and ISBN 0816525498.
