"Con este volumen, el joven campo del español como lengua heredada
alcanza su madurez y consolida su importancia dentro de la
lingüística aplicada. Estos 36 estudios, firmados por un
extraordinario elenco de expertos, ofrecen análisis desde una
multiplicidad de contextos y ángulos, algunos muy novedosos.
Potowski ha logrado ensamblar una magnífica obra coral." Francisco
Moreno Fernández, Universidad de Alcalá and Instituto Cervantes at
Harvard University
"The breadth of scholarship collected here, including leading
researchers in Latino studies, various disciplines of linguistics,
and education, is the result of Potowski's vision for these fields
to inform each other with the goal of improving circumstances for
diasporic Spanish-speaking populations around the world. These
analyses push our understandings of critical topics, and many
chapters inspire advocacy for marginalized populations. An
essential volume."Norma Mendoza-Denton, University of California
Los Angeles
