Rezensionen

This is clear thinking and solid experience toward education for a truly democratic and just multilingual world. Beloved scholar-advocates Tannenbaum and Shohamy share wisdom, expertise and a way forward for multilingual education policy, drawing on their decades of lived experience and dedicated language policy research and practice in conflict-ridden Israel.

Nancy H. Hornberger, University of Pennsylvania, USA

In this empirically rich and conceptually cogent book, Michal Tannenbaum and Elana Shohamy present a new multilingual education policy in Israel through Shared Education and an array of innovative pedagogical and assessment approaches. The implications of this work go well beyond language and education. It is in fact a new vision for the nation, with diversity and peace at the heart of it.
