The Language of Adult Immigrants: Agency in the Making - New Perspectives on Language and Education
Elizabeth R. Miller
This work explores how immigrant small business owners co-construct their theories of agency, in relation to language learning and use. It explores the constitution of language learner agency by drawing on performativity theory. It builds on the work of Vygotsky and Bakhtin along with research on 'agency of spaces' and language ideologies.
