Social Inclusion, peer-reviewed journal indexed in the Social Sciences 
Citation Index (Web of Science; Impact Factor: 1.333) and Scopus 
(CiteScore: 2.5), welcomes new and exciting research papers for its 
upcoming issue "Adult Migrants’ Language Learning, Labour Market, and 
Social Inclusion," edited by Andreas Fejes (Linköping University) and 
Magnus Dahlstedt (Linköping University).

Language learning and language education plays a central role in adult 
migrants’ establishment in the receiving country. Adult migrants 
anywhere are a heterogeneous group, with different life experiences and 
conditions for language learning and social inclusion. From the 
perspective of migrants themselves, language learning is mostly 
future-oriented, as access to linguistic resources is linked to a 
"future identity" and the prospect of being part of an imagined 
community. It is thus regarded as a means for entering the labor market 
as well as higher education. However, with a strong focus on language 
and language learning, there is a risk that important factors in 
migrants’ social inclusion are neglected.

The relationship between migrants’ language learning with the labor 
market and social inclusion is thus a complex one, and this thematic 
issue will challenge scholars and researchers to address it. We invite 
contributions that problematize such relationship across different 
educational, social, professional, and geographical contexts.
