Subject: Call for Chapters: The Complexity of Identity and Interaction

 
This edited volume, drawing upon postmodern and poststructural theory, will
represent a novel attempt to reconcile critical approaches to identity and
experience, with attention to the complexity of identity and interaction in
and beyond the classroom, within language education (Canagarajah, 2007, 2013;
Cenoz & Gorter, 2015; De Costa, 2014; Jenkins, 2015; Kramsch & Zhang, 2017;
Lin, 2013; Selvi & Rudolph, 2017). The volume will focus, in particular, on
classroom practice that:

- Apprehends and addresses the contextualized, sociohistorical construction of
essentialization and idealization within communities and language learning
classrooms therein
- Accounts for the dynamic, negotiated complexity of learner and user
identity, and interaction, in the classroom
- Equips learners for the challenges of interaction in a world characterized
both by movement and diversity and simultaneous attempts to manipulate,
control and stifle such variety and dynamism

Our goal is to provide teaching professionals and teacher educators at all
levels, in contexts around the globe, with a volume that transcends particular
“language” teaching “fields” (e.g., ELT), bringing together common
conversations and issues occurring in and across discursive spaces and
discourse communities. We envision a volume that equips teachers and teacher
educators, both present and potential with a theoretical foundation for their
practice, and ideas and inspiration upon which to draw in their classrooms.
The overarching working medium of the volume will be English, though
contributors are free and encouraged to incorporate rich, translingual
descriptions of conceptualized and actualized practice into their chapters.

Individuals interested in participating in the volume are asked to submit a
tentative title and abstract of up to 300 words outlining their proposed
chapter, in addition to providing their name and affiliation. Please submit
the document in .doc/docx/.pdf format to Nathanael Rudolph, on or before April
15, 2018, at: najoru13 at mukogawa-u.ac.jp . Additionally, please feel free to
contact the Editors with any questions regarding the content and foci of
proposals.
