摘要本研究旨在探讨在中国快速城市化和内部移民的背景下,民族认同、语言意识形态和家庭资本如何在相互作用下塑造朝鲜族-中国移民家庭的多语言规划。投资模型(Darvin and Norton [2015])。“身份和应用语言学投资模式”。《应用语言学年鉴》35:36-56)。通过对上海市30个韩汉双语家庭的问卷调查,以及对6个重点家庭为期4个月的半结构式访谈和家访收集数据。调查结果显示,家庭中的韩语学习转向了汉语和英语,并暂停了韩语学习。结果表明,双语父母通过语言社会化重建了自己的民族身份,获得了等级语言意识形态,并对家庭资本进行了差异化利用。此外,当面临意识形态冲突和结构性限制时,这些父母试图切断语言与族裔身份之间的假定联系,声称族裔是在血液中,而不是在语言中。他们根据自己对孩子的想象身份做出家庭语言投资决策。该研究通过对身份如何介导不同语言中不同形式的家庭资本投资的更细致的理解,为FLP研究的主体做出了贡献。
ABSTRACT This study aims to explore how ethnic identity, linguistic ideology, and family capital work in interaction in shaping Korean-Chinese migrant families’ multilingual planning against the backdrop of China’s rapid urbanisation and internal migration. A model of investment (Darvin and Norton [2015]. “Identity and a Model of Investment in Applied Linguistics.” Annual Review of Applied Linguistics 35: 36–56) was drawn upon. Data were collected via a questionnaire survey on 30 Korean-Chinese bilingual families in Shanghai, and semi-structured interviews and home visits with six focal families over a period of four months. The findings revealed a shift to Chinese and English and a suspension of Korean learning in the families. It was shown that the bilingual parents reconstructed their ethnic identity through linguistic socialisation, acquired hierarchical language ideologies, and made differentiated use of family capital. Moreover, when facing ideological conflicts and structural constraints, these parents attempted to sever the assumed link between language and ethnic identity, claiming that ethnicity is in the blood but not in the language. They made family language investment decisions guided by imagined identities they had for their children. The study contributes to the body of FLP research by eliciting a more nuanced understanding of how identity mediates the investment of different forms of family capital in different languages.
