Communicative Spaces In Bilingual Contexts Discourses Synergies And Counterflows In Spanish And English Sánchezmuñoz by Sánchez-muñoz, Ana & Retis, Jessica instant download after payment.

This collection bridges disciplinary scholarship from critical language studies, Latinx critical communication, and media studies scholarship for a comprehensive exploration of Spanish-English bilingualism in the U.S. and in turn, elucidating, more broadly, our understanding of bilingualism in a post-digital society. Chapters offer a state of the art on research at the intersection of language, communication, and media, with a focus on key debates in Spanish-English bilingualism research. The volume provides a truly interdisciplinary perspective, synthesizing a wide range of approaches to promote greater dialogue between these fields and examining different communicative bilingual spaces. These include ideological spaces, political spaces, publicity and advertising spaces, digital and social media spaces, entertainment and TV spaces, and school and family spaces. This book will be of interest to students and scholars in bilingualism, language and communication, language and media, and Latin American and Chicano/a studies.
