以及那些寻求了解美国日益增长的多语言和多元文化人口的政策制定者，并为塑造我们的学校如何向所有孩子教授语言做出贡献，而不仅仅是那些母语不是英语的孩子。由于选民越来越多地面临政治驱动的公民投票倡议，以限制双语教育，正如2002年11月在科罗拉多州和马萨诸塞州的选举中所发生的那样（前者的投票倡议被击败，后者的投票倡议被通过），在这里回顾的规模上，需要将更多的工作插入到政策考虑的混合中。没有哪本书能扭转双语教育的颓势，也没有哪本书能推动多元文化的重要性，但《作为文化实践的语言》有望成为一本重要的文献，将语言教育的政策考虑提升到两极分化和简化主义的观点之上。
ars, and policy makers who seek to understand the increasingly multilingual and multicultural population of the U.S. and to contribute to the shaping of how our schools teach languages to all children—not just to those whose native language is not English. As voters are increasingly faced with politically driven citizen ballot initiatives to curb bilingual education, as was the case in the November 2002 elections in Colorado and Massachusetts (where a ballot initiative was defeated in the former but passed in the latter), more work on the scale of that reviewed here needs to be inserted into the mix of policy considerations.No single book will turn the tide that has pounded bilingual education nor propel the importance of multiple literacies, but Language as Cultural Practice has the prospect of being an important document for elevating policy considerations about language education above polarized and reductionist viewpoints.
