    摘要、提要註: In this first critical ethnography of bilingual education in Japan, Yasuko Kanno examines therelationship between school education and inequality of access to bilingualism. She provides detailed and vivid accounts of the lived experiences of teachers, students and parents at fiveschools in Japan: an immersion school, a Chinese ethnic school, an international school, and two state/ 'public'schools. Drawing on the concept of imagined communities, Yasuko Kanno argues that schools provide unequal access to bilingualism by envisioning different imagined communities for students of different socioeconomic classes and socializing them into these stratified imagined communities. While additive bilingualism in two socially prestigious languages is aggressively promoted for upper-middle-classstudents, immigrant and refugee children are subtly coerced into replacing their first language withsociety's dominant language.
