Denial from the other side: Experiences of racism as narrated by South Sudanese refugees in Australia
This paper discusses experiences of everyday racism as narrated by South Sudanese refugee-background informants living in Australia. The paper draws on accounts of verbal and physical attacks reported during a sociolinguistic interview about the refugee experience and adaptation to the Australian lifestyle. The study contributes to the exploration of features of refugee narratives, using the socio-interactional approach to narrative analysis. Sel…
Like the virus just brings out the worst in people’: Positioning and identity in student narratives during the Covid-19 outbreak in Australia
This paper illustrates how superdiverse youth negotiate their identity in everyday interactions during Australia's Covid-19 outbreak. The discussion is based on oral narratives collected from classroom conversations among international and local students living in Australia. The paper illustrates how participants position themselves and others in narratives, how these positionings reveal complex identity work among youth from diverse backgrounds …
That word “abuse” is a big problem for us: South Sudanese parents’ positioning and agency vis-à-vis parenting conflicts in Australia
Unpacking monolingual ideologies
While Sydney is one of the linguistically and ethnically most diverse cities in the world, this de facto diversity is not always welcome in public spaces. This chapter presents the findings of a small-scale qualitative study which explored the reasons behind the formation of negative attitudes to the use of languages other than English. The respondents were undergraduate students studying at a major Australian university. While the homogenizing l…
Finding one's own linguistic space: Views on English, Afrikaans and identity in a semi-urban Australian context
The use of the Afrikaans and English in South Africa is well documented in the literature, but little is known about the ideologies attached to these languages in diasporic contexts. In light of the large scale immigration of South Africans into English-speaking countries, this paper aims to explore the dynamics of identity formation of 17 Afrikaans-speaking South African families with respect to both Afrikaans and the South African English accen…
Where are you from? Identity construction and experiences of ‘othering’ in the narratives of Sudanese refugee-background Australians
This article discusses collective identification among Sudanese refugee-background residents in Australia. The discursive data is drawn from semi-structured interviews through which identity self-categorizations and self-labelling were explored. In addition, mini-narratives about their experiences of intergroup communication with mainstream Australians were analysed in depth. In these narratives, the main topic was the story of being confronted w…
Gendered barriers to educational opportunities: Resettlement of Sudanese refugees in Australia
This paper argues that whilst equitable educational pathways are integrated into educational policy discourses in Australia, there are significant gendered barriers to educational participation among members of the Sudanese refugee groups. The specific conditions of forced migration reinforce disadvantage and further limit opportunities. Cultural factors play a key role in this, as the data from this study demonstrate. Participants in this study …
Language maintenance and identity among Sudanese-Australian refugee-background youth
This paper reports the results of a sociolinguistic survey-based study of the Sudanese community in a regional settlement in Australia. The context of this study represents a distinctive language contact setting with a unique combination of social, cultural and demographic factors. The study aimed to explore attitudes, perceptions and the actual use of mother tongue in a refugee context among adolescent and young adult secondary school learners f…
Language, Acculturation and Identity in the German Community of Rural South East Queensland
This paper discusses the maintenance of German language and culture in a rural settlement in Australia. The study is based on interview data gathered among first generation German immigrants who settled in South-East Queensland between 1955 and 2001. The paper focuses on two main aspects of language maintenance: firstly, the impact of the assimilationist ideological climate in the 1950s, 1960s and early 1970s and of multiculturalism from the 1970…
Community-Level Approaches in Language Planning: The Case of Hungarian in Australia
This paper provides an example of micro-planning which involves community, government and non-government organisations both in the context of immigrants’ source and host countries. The community in question is the Hungarian diaspora in Australia. The language planning activities are aimed at maintaining an immigrant heritage language and identity. The paper first gives a theoretical discussion on the definition of language policy and planning, wi…
Promoting Diversity through Language-in-Education Policies: Focus on Australia and the European Union
Promoting diversity has become a prominent goal in language-in-education policy discourse in two broad contexts. On the one hand, language policies take on the challenge of maintaining and developing de facto linguistic and cultural diversity through language acquisition planning; on the other hand, they portray themselves as active agents of social change and aim to develop positive cross-cultural attitudes through language education. This paper…
