<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">The <i>Bilingual Research Journal</i>
<i>(BRJ)</i> is the premier peer reviewed journal of the National Association of Bilingual Education (NABE). The purpose of this themed issue is to explore research, theoretical orientations and methodologies that extend Richard Ruiz’s important impact in language
planning and bilingual education. Guest editors are interested in receiving abstracts from<b>
</b>scholars whose scholarship is deeply impacted by the contributions of this eminent scholar. In 1984 Professor Richard Ruiz wrote a seminal article,
<i>Orientations in Language Planning</i>, for the <i>NABE Journal </i>(now known as the
<i>BRJ)</i>. This publication influenced scholarship nationally and internationally. In the mid 90s, Dr. Ruiz was editor of the
<i>BRJ</i>. For the 2016 call the guest editors seek manuscripts that offer theoretical analyses as well as research based arguments about language planning in an increasingly diverse and globalized world. How can educational research in language studies account
for dynamic interactions, practices, and engagements of children, youth, and/or adults in schools, churches, and community organizations? How do language policies and practices enable not only analysis, but also transformative change? We ask that you consider
these questions, among many others, as you theorize the meanings, purposes, and values of the work of Richard Ruiz. In your research abstract (see below), we ask that you are attentive to the ways theoretically sophisticated work offers promise to PreK-16
curricular planning, language policies in formal and informal contexts, teacher education and teacher practice.</span><span style="color:black"><u></u><u></u></span></p>
