Produktbeschreibung

This book looks at state governance and communication as related to Kichwa language reclamation and schooling in Ecuador including the benefits and unplanned outcomes of these cultural politics and policies. Drawing in-depth ethnographic research with state actors and mediators, including planners, linguists, and teachers, Nicholas Limerick details the process of adapting Indigenous language use for the very institutions that have suppressed it.
