Kvietok Duenas, Frances Julia – ProQuest LLC, 2019
Quechua language education and research has long been relegated to rural areas and elementary schools of the Andes.

In the Andes, a phonological transference known as "motoseo" has acquired ideological weight. People think that bilingual speakers of Quechua and Spanish "confuse" the vowels when speaking Spanish and that they are inferior to the ones who do not. In this article, I analyze the ideological agenda of the racialized verbal…

Salomon, Frank; Apaza, Emilio Chambi – Reading Research Quarterly, 2006
Ethnographic "New Literacy Studies" question the idea that literacy as such has any uniform effects, arguing instead that effects of literacy inhere in the social practices that impart it. What change, then, does literacy produce where it arrived from two opposed sets of practices? In Quechua-and Aymara-speaking villages on the high…

Harvey, Penelope M. – Language in Society, 1991
