These studies take up such active issues as A a�AinsidernessA a? in Cherokee languageideologies, contradictions of space-time for the Northern Arapaho, languagesocialization and Paiute identity, and orthography choices and language renewalamong the Kiowa. The authorsA a�aincluding members of indigenous speech communitieswho participate in language renewal effortsA a�adiscuss not only NativeAmericansA a�a conscious language ideologies but also the often-revealing relationshipbetween these beliefs and other more implicit realizations of language useas embedded in community practice. The chapters discuss the impact of contemporary language issues related to grammar, language use, the relation between language and social identity, andemergent language ideologies themselves in Native American speech communities.And although they portray obvious variation in attitudes toward languageacross communities, they also reveal commonalitiesA a�anotably the emergentideological process of iconization between a language and various national, ethnic, and tribal identities.
