Bücher von Nanette (University of Queensland) Gottlieb

The increase in the number of migrants learning Japanese and the influence of electronic technologies on the way Japanese is written have led to a need for change in language policy in Japan. This book looks at the impact of these developments on linguistic behaviour and language management and policy.

Nanette Gottlieb's book considers the role of language in Japanese society in relation to identity formation. It covers important questions such as multilingualism, language and nationalism, and literacy and reading habits. Building on the author's previous highly regarded work, it will be essential reading for students and scholars.
