Abstract:

Spanning Indigenous settings in Africa, the Americas, Aotearoa/New Zealand,
Australia, Central Asia and the Nordic countries, this book examines the
multifaceted language reclamation work underway by Indigenous peoples
throughout the world. Exploring political, historical, ideological, and
pedagogical issues, the book foregrounds the decolonizing aims of contemporary
Indigenous language movements inside and outside of schools. Many authors
explore language reclamation in their own communities. Together, the authors
call for expanded discourses on language planning and policy that embrace
Indigenous ways of knowing and forefront grassroots language reclamation
efforts as a force for Indigenous sovereignty, social justice, and
self-determination. This volume will be of interest to scholars, educators and
students in applied linguistics, Ethnic/Indigenous Studies, education, second
language acquisition, and comparative-international education, and to a
broader audience of language educators, revitalizers and policymakers.
