"Comment sont formés les futurs patrons américains ? Quel sens moral retirent-ils de leur passage sur les bancs des fameuses business schools où ils acquièrent leur formation ? L’analyse ethnographique de la plus emblématique de ces écoles, celle de Harvard, apporte des réponses. Michel Anteby nous découvre les rouages d’une institution centenaire et dresse des parallèles frappants entre la socialisation des professeurs et celle des élèves. De la préparation des séances de cours à la circulation dans les tunnels du campus, du système d’évaluation et de notation aux suspensions pour motif d’insuffisance académique, ce livre retrace le parcours éducatif, à la fois mythique et singulier, de ceux qui aspirent à devenir patrons. Car ils évoluent dans un contexte qui promeut un silence normatif relatif. Arguant de respecter une multitude de points de vue, l’école se refuse à prôner ouvertement une norme. C’est donc une étrange idéologie de la non-idéologie qui est interrogée ici, et un silence bien plus parlant qu’il n’y paraît. "

This book examines how Russian-speaking adoptees in three US families actively shape opportunities for language learning and identity construction in everyday interactions. By focusing on a different practice in each family (i.e. narrative talk about the day, metalinguistic discourse or languaging, and code-switching), the analyses uncover different types of learner agency and show how language socialization is collaborative and co-constructed. The learners in this study achieve agency through resistance, participation, and negotiation, and the findings demonstrate the complex ways in which novices transform communities in transnational contexts. The perspectives inform the fields of second language acquisition and language maintenance and shift. The book further provides a rare glimpse of the "idian negotiations of adoptive family life and suggestions for supporting adoptees as young bilinguals.
