Bücher von Scott Saft

This book will be relevant for academics interested in the intersection of language and social justice and languages in Hawai'i, but it should also be of interest to undergraduate and especially graduate students in sociolinguistics, language revitalization and language documentation, discourse analysis, applied linguistics, and pragmatics.

Through an approach informed by language ecology and linguistic ethnography, this book examines Hawai'i as a complex multilingual society. Focusing on situated language usage as well as underlying ideological beliefs, the book offers analyses of Hawaiian, Pidgin, Japanese, the languages of Micronesia, and the phenomenon of language mixing.
