Description
Learning and Using Languages in Ethnographic Research offers a fresh perspective on language learning for ethnographic research. Written by experienced ethnographers, this collection shares engaging accounts of language acquisition and use, shedding light on the complex relationships between researchers, languages, and power structures.
The book explores how researchers' experiences with multilingualism in fieldwork contexts relate to broader issues of hierarchy and inequality. By sharing their own stories and insights, the authors aim to spark a wider debate among researchers about language learning and use in ethnographic work, ultimately informing more informed choices for future fieldworkers.
