Abstract:

This book responds to a growing body of work in sociolinguistics and applied
linguistics that places an emphasis on situated descriptions of language
education practices and illuminates how these descriptions are enmeshed with
local, institutional and wider social forces. It engages with new ways of
understanding language that expand its meaning by including other semiotic
resources and meaning-making practices and bring to the fore its messiness and
unpredictability. The chapters illustrate how a translingual and transcultural
orientation to language and language pedagogy can provide a point of entry to
reimagining what language education might look like under conditions of
heightened linguistic and cultural diversity and increased linguistic and
social inequalities. The book unites an international group of contributors,
presenting state-of-the-art empirical studies drawing on a wide range of local
contexts and spaces, from linguistically and culturally heterogeneous
mainstream and HE classrooms to complementary (community) school and informal
language learning contexts.
