Resumen de Implications between education and familial policies: an introduction

Katja Cantone, Patrick Wolf Farré

• In recent years, heritage language studies have increasingly been focused on either FLP or the role of educational institutions, but rarely combined both perspectives. This leaves out other elements, such as language ideology, which can be decisive in the maintenance or loss of languages. We suggest a turn towards factors such as the complexity of transnational families, the role of different immigrant generations, and larger societal shifts.
