Language Ideologies
Language ideologies are a mediating device that helps people make sense of the relationship between linguistic and other communicative patterns and socially salient categories. Language ideologies are used to evaluate socially perceivable behavior as meaningful with respect to issues of power, authority, and difference. They can be understood as a framework for linking certain uses of language (or other communicative forms) with certain social po…
Making language ‘academic’
We argue that 'academic language' should not be understood as technical components associated with a 'register', and that instead we must attend to its enregisterment. Enregisterment relies upon language ideologies and models of personhood, requiring attention to social components of 'academic language' beyond lexico-grammar. We draw on ethnographic data from Latina girls in a US middle school to show how adolescence presents a unique ontogenetic…
Citation
Citation is a reflexive, semiotic practice that is dependent upon local ethno‐metapragmatics. The centrality of reflexivity is explored through an analysis of power relations involved in citational practice.

This project is doubly modern in its temporal rupture…

Contemporary answers to this question have moved beyond the détente of the "micro-macro dialectic…
