Abstract:

This book offers a fresh perspective on the social life of multilingualism
through the lens of the important notion of linguistic citizenship. All of the
chapters are underpinned by a theoretical and methodological engagement with
linguistic citizenship as a useful heuristic through which to understand
sociolinguistic processes in late modernity, focusing in particular on
linguistic agency and voices on the margins of our societies. The authors take
stock of conservative, liberal, progressive and radical social transformations
in democracies in the north and south, and consider the implications for
multilingualism as a resource, as a way of life and as a feature of identity
politics. Each chapter builds on earlier research on linguistic citizenship by
illuminating how multilingualism (in both theory and practice) should be, or
could be, thought of as inclusive when we recognize what multilingual speakers
do with language for voice and agency.
