    Basque intergenerational transmission from a language socialisation perspective
    (Palgrave Macmillan, 2022) Kasares, Paula; Ortega, Ane; Amorrortu, Estibaliz
    Intergenerational transmission of Basque has been the focus of attention during the revitalization process that started 40 years ago, the learn-ing of the language by the young being a key factor of the process. Studies on intergenerational transmission in the Basque context have traditionally only looked at parent-child transmission within the family, a paradigm, as it is here argued, that is not sufficient to understand how transmission occurs in situations of minority language revitalization, where many families do not speak the language. The article proposes instead the suitability of the more holistic paradigm of language socialisation (Ochs & Schieffelin 1992; Schieffelin & Ochs 1986). By bringing to the fore the interrelated roles of the community and the education system, and, most importantly, the agency of children themselves, this paradigm questions the vertical, unidirectional, and mother tongue-based trans-mission model. Even if the suitability of the language socialszation model to understand language revitalization processes has been noted by ex-perts (cf. Duranti et al. 2012), it has hardly been used in the study of European minority languages, being Paula Kasares’ (2014, 2017, 2020) study of Basque intergenerational transmission in Navarre one of the very few. This article draws from this study, as well as from two other research projects: one on new speakers of Basque in the Basque Autonomous Community (Ortega et al. 2016) and another one on the attitudes of non-Basque speakers to Basque (Amorrortu et al. 2009). The theoretical re-conceptualization of intergenerational language transmission pre-sented in this article is hoped to be a contribution to other minority languages contexts.

    Ekintza-ikerketa partehartzailea euskararen hiztun aktibo bihurtzeko babesgune eta zubi-espazio
    (Soziolinguistika Klusterra, 2021) Amorrortu, Estibaliz; Goirigolzarri Garaizar, Jone; Ortega, Ane
    Euskararen hiztun aktibo bihurtu nahi duten hiztun gazteen mudantza-prozesua (Pujolar eta Gonzàlez 2013) erraztu dezaketen espazioetan jarriko dugu arreta. Ildo horretan, ekintza-ikerketa partehartzailea (Greenwood eta Levin, 2006) eginda burutu den Bilbo Handiko unibertsitate-ikasleen mudantza- prozesuak izeneko proiektua proposatu nahi dugu espazio gisa, eta erakutsi proiektu hori, eta burutzeko sortu den komunitate epistemikoa (Estalella eta Sánchez Criado 2018), mudantza-prozesuak errazteko espazioa izan dela berez, bai babesgune (Puigdevall, Colombo eta Puigdevall, 2019; Hernández, Iñarra eta Altuna, 2021, zenbaki honetan bertan) bai zubi-espazio (del Valle 2001). Espazio horrek, proiektuaren diseinua eta helburua bera kontuan hartuta, baldintza mesedegarriak eman ditu eraldaketa- prozesuetarako, bai hizkuntza-praktikei dagokienez (aktibazioa), bai pertsonen subjektibotasunei dagokienez, gazteek izandako hausnarketa kritikoaren prozesuari esker. Gazteen hizkuntza-ahalduntzerako eta eraldaketa-prozesurako funtsezkoak izan diren elementuak erakutsiko ditugu

    Euskal hiztun berri gazteak muda-prozesuan : ekintza-ikerketa baten behin-behineko emaitzak
    (Gobierno de Navarra, 2020) Amorrortu, Estibaliz; Ortega, Ane; Goirigolzarri Garaizar, Jone
    Artikulu honetan Bilbo Handiko unibertsitate-ikasle batzuk ikerketakide harturik egin dugun ekintza-ikerketa partehartzaile baten aurkitutako emaitza batzuen berri ematen da. Zehazki, unibertsitate-eremuko euskararen erabilera handitzeko esperimentazio bat aurrera eramaterakoan partaideek izan dituzten zailtasunak eta gako mesedegarriak aztertzen dira, hala nola bakoitzak planteatutako erronkak arrakastaz aurrera eramateko erabili dituzten estrategiak. Emaitzek Bilbokoaren moduko testuinguru nahiko erdaldun batean ere, unibertsitatea hizkuntza-mudarako –hau da, hizkuntza gutxituaren hiztun aktibo bihurtzeko– une egokia izan daitekeela erakusten dute, baina prozesu hori konplexua eta zailtasunez betea dela. Baldintza aproposak sortuta muda egiteko aukera egon daiteke. Ekintza-ikerketa partehartzaileak hizkuntza-mudaren prozesuan suertatzen diren dinamikak sakontasunez ezagutzeaz gain aukera paregabea eskaintzen du muda egin nahi dutenek baldintza mesedegarriak izateko.

    Negotiating sociolinguistic justice: turning spaces of inequality into spaces of conscientization
    (De Gruyter Mouton, 2025) Martín Rojo, Luisa; Pujolar Cos, Joan; Amorrortu, Estibaliz
    This introduction to the special issue Negotiating Sociolinguistic Justice: Turning Spaces of Inequality into Spaces of Conscientization focuses on how sociolinguistic research can be reimagined as a tool for activism and social intervention. The authors advocate for research that not only describes language-based inequalities but actively intervenes to address them by engaging communities in participatory processes. Inspired by Paulo Freire's concept of conscientization, this special issue explores ho w spaces can be created for researchers and participants to engage in critical reflection on linguistic injustices, investigate their socio-political roots, and mobilize for collective change. Grounded in the action-research project EquiLing, conducted across various sociolinguistic contexts in Spain - including Madrid, Galicia, Catalonia, and the Basque Country - this special issue examines the role of language in the (re)production of social inequalities, manifesting differently across regions. These inequalities include the exclusion of immigrant languages, non-standardized language varieties, and minoritized languages such as Basque, Galician, and Catalan, as well as the misrecognition of their speakers, resulting in their limited participation in social institutions. In four articles, the authors illustrate how conscientization spaces integrate participants' voice and agency - from university students to youth in sports clubs - to critically reflect on the roots of language-based inequality and mobilize toward counteraction. Each article explores a different stage of the conscientization process, from raising awareness of inequalities to exploring structural causes to mobilizing for action. The issue also examines how research committed to sociopolitical transformation extends beyond academic boundaries, requiring partnerships with social collectives and activists at all stages of the research. This involvement poses significant challenges to epistemological, methodological and policy frameworks, which in turn raise ethical concerns. Addressing these challenges requires rethinking who has the right to produce knowledge and developing approaches that foster collaborative engagement with co-participants and stakeholders. This approach adds a political dimension to research, which in turn poses new challenges, particularly with regard to the impact of transformative action, and requires critical reflection on the social responsibilities of researchers and the power dynamics inherent in research practices. Ultimately, it requires navigating ethical complexities related to participants' agency and authorship. This special issue highlights the potential of participatory action research to promote sociolinguistic justice and aims to contribute to the ongoing debate on how to effectively address these challenges. Together, these contributions provide a roadmap for future research that seeks not only to understand linguistic inequalities but also to transform them through collective action.

    Participatory action research to promote linguistic mudas among new speakers of Basque: design and benefits
    (Routledge, 2022) Ortega, Ane; Goirigolzarri Garaizar, Jone; Amorrortu, Estibaliz
    This article discusses the effectiveness of Participatory Action Research-PAR to foster linguistic mudas, transformative processes among young new speakers of Basque leading to linguistic mudas (Pujolar and Gonzàlez. 2013. “Linguistic Mudes and the Deethnicization of Language Choice in Catalonia.” International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism 16 (2): 138–152) in favour of the minority language. Taking into account the three principles of PAR –research, participation, and action–, and using an ethnographic action-based approach, participants in the research project were agents of their own linguistic change by becoming co-researchers, who observed their own behaviour and set themselves personal challenges for increasing their everyday use of Basque. We describe how participants engaged in a process of self-awareness and reflective thinking in which teamwork, cooperative discussion of ideas and experiences, and relations of accompaniment (Bucholtz, Casillas, and Lee. 2016. “Beyond Empowerment: Accompaniment and Sociolinguistic Justice in a Youth Research Program.” In Sociolinguistic Research: Application and Impact, edited by R. Lawson, and D. Sayers. Routledge) proved crucial to find strategies for increasing new speakers’ control and agency (Ahearn 2001. “Language and Agency”. Annual Review of Anthropology 30: 109–137.), in order to enact the changes they desired. The article shows PAR methodology to be effective to bring about a change in participants’ subjectivities and linguistic practices, as well as to understand the complexities of muda processes among Basque new speakers in dominantly Spanish-speaking sociolinguistic contexts
