The Politics of Incompetence: Learning Language, Relations of Power, and Daily Resistance
“Incompetence” is not a deficit but a productive force that generates knowledge, subject positions, social relations, and space. This volume explores effects of such “incompetence” in Japanese language classrooms in the US, language tourism in Italy, and Maori language revitalization in Aotearoa/New Zealand, opening up a new area of study.
