The volume offers: •An important 30-year retrospective of the roots and development of language socialization •Insights from a wide range of linguistic, ethnic, and geographical regions of the world •Views on language socialization as a lifelong process that takes place in various and multiple settings and over first and second/foreign languages •Approaches from different, complementary traditions and disciplines This is one of ten volumes of the Encyclopedia of Language and Education published by Springer. The Encyclopedia bears testimony to the dynamism and evolution of the language and education field, as it confronts the ever-burgeoning and irrepressible linguistic diversity and ongoing pressures and expectations placed on education around the world.
