[Linganth] New book: Entangled Discourses: South-North Orders of Visibility.

[Caroline Kerfoot]

Hello Everyone

I did not think to post this book to the list when it appeared in January. The publishers recently extended free online access - there are two or three days left.



Please click here http://rdcu.be/tlce  for free access. Copy and paste seems to work better.



Kerfoot, Caroline, and Kenneth Hyltenstam (eds). 2017. Entangled Discourses: South-North Orders of Visibility. Routledge Critical Studies in Multilingualism. New York: Routledge.



This book uniquely explores the shifting structures of power and unexpected points of intersection - entanglements - at the nexus of North and South as a lens through which to examine the impact of global and local circuits of people, practices and ideas on linguistic, cultural and knowledge systems. The volume considers the entanglement of North and South on multiple levels in the contemporary and continuing effects of capitalism, colonialism, and imperialism, in the form of silenced or marginalized populations, such as refugees, immigrants, and other minoritised groups, and in the different orders of visibility that make some types of practices and knowledge more legitimate and therefore more visible. It uses a range of methodological and analytical frames to shed light on less visible histories, practices, identities, repertoires, and literacies, and offer new understandings for research and for language, health care, education, and other policies and practices.



All the best

Caroline
