>This email announces a new publication, the Journal of Language, Identity,
>and Education B a quarterly journal devoted to innovative and rigorous
>research and critical scholarship that helps define and advance inquiry
>concerned with intersecting issues related to language, identity, and
>education. We are very excited about the potential of this journal to shape
>an interdisciplinary field of inquiry which heretofore has not had its own
>publication but has only been reflected in multiple journals. The Journal
>of Language, Identity, and Education will include articles and book reviews.
>All articles will be peer reviewed by members of the Editorial Advisory
>Board (see below) and external reviewers, and will reflect the highest
>standards of scholarship. One issue each year will be on a special topic
>with an invited guest editor. The first call for papers will go out in
>January 2001.
>
>Vol. I, No. 1 will appear early in 2002.

>Editorial Scope Education plays a central role in promoting social
>development, stability, integration, and equity in a linguistically and
>culturally diverse world. Policy decisions in educational settings today
>often require an understanding of the relationships between home
>language/variety and school language/variety, ethnic and gender identity,
>societal attitudes toward languages/varieties, and differential performance
>across groups. This journal will seek out cutting edge interdisciplinary
>research from around the world, reflecting diverse theoretical and
>methodological frameworks and topical areas. The journal will solicit
>articles that deal with the following issues:
>
>1. Educational policies and approaches that explicitly address various
>dimensions of diversity
>
>2. The formation and consequences of identities in educational and other
>social contexts
>
>3. Language policies and linguistic rights in educational contexts
>
>4. The role of indigenous languages/varieties in education
>
>5. Critical studies of literacy policies, including national literacy and
>biliteracy, demographics, the socio-economic and political significance of
>literacy, and societal expectations regarding literacy
>
>6. Research on the relationship between home/local linguistic and cultural
>socialization and schooling
>
>7. Critical and comparative analyses of official and legal frameworks for
>educational policies and practices in diverse settings
>
>8. Critical studies of school and community attitudes and expectations
>about schooling
>
>9. Critical studies about bias in schooling practices
>
>10. Research on educational practices that promote educational equity for
