“…Current research focusing on immigrant students' identity analyses the discourse created around them in multilingual societies where they are often disadvantaged in comparison to their autochthonous counterparts because they do not master the reinforced language(s) in the education system (Choi 2017;Cummins, Hu, Markus, and Montero 2015;Kaplan and Chacko 2015;Shohamy 2017;Weber 2009). Norton (2013) proposed an analysis of the educational practices involving the teaching of the host society's language to immigrant students and used the concept of investment to describe how these students 'invest' their time in learning the target language.…”

This paper focuses on language ideologies in relation to identity in Basque secondary education, in a context where the teaching of a minority language is part of the curriculum. More precisely, it addresses the views held by teachers and immigrant students in relation to Basque, which is a minority language in the Basque Country. The aim is to analyse these views in their discourses both separately and in interaction. Methods include documentary analysis, participant observation, individual interviews and focus groups. Results indicate that there are engrained ideologies indexing identity in tension: those of teachers as Basque supporters and those adopted by students as Basque detractors, which come into conflict during classroom interaction when it involves learning Basque. The article concludes that these two ideologies constitute opposing identities and provides educational guidelines to improve classroom dynamics when acrimonious interactions such as these occur.

“…Segundo Kaplan e Chacko (2015) o local onde o imigrante viverá é um fator primordial para integração na nova sociedade. Segundo dados divulgados em relatório do CONARE (Comitê Nacional para Refugiados), foram reconhecidos no Brasil até o fim de 2016, 9.552 refugiados de 82 nacionalidades.…”

O presente estudo teve por objetivo identificar a diferença entre o envolvimento nas práticas de lazer exercido por refugiados residentes em Florianópolis-SC, com relação ao seu país de origem. Utilizou-se o instrumento Escalas de Práticas no Lazer (EPL) para identificar o a realização das práticas nos diferentes contextos do lazer. A diferença estatística entre os dois momentos (p=0,002) indicou que o envolvimento em práticas no lazer foi menor no contexto atual (36,44(17,1) pontos) quando comparada ao contexto de origem (46,00(20,8) pontos), especialmente nos conteúdos artístico (p<0,001), físico-esportivo (p=0,024) e turístico (p<0,001) do lazer.Verificou-se também que houve diminuição em todos os domínios do lazer, indicando que esta população necessita de um olhar das políticas públicas visto que as práticas no lazer contribuem para o desenvolvimento pessoal, social, para qualidade de vida e dignidade humana.

“…This is not surprising, given the sensitivity of Chinese ethnic issues, lack of accessibility for scholars, and scant data for this region. Furthermore, migrant ethnic identity in the acculturation process is positioned and conditioned by the cultural context of the receiving society (Kaplan and Chacko 2015). In China, regional ethnic autonomy is assigned by the regional governments at different administrative levels where minority groups have been congregated by the Chinese government.…”
