here's an article on this topic taken from the other end of the deal.
it was pretty groundbreaking at the time (1997).
worth a read if you have a free half hour.

Thanks Matt.
I was an interesting read.
It also links over to the English at Work topic as it mostly deals with immigrants.
So should "the original peoples" of a country be treated as immigrants?



Oh BTW I couldn't get the .pdf link to work. I'd like to download the article, could you double check the link?
