The Journal of Applied Linguistics and Applied Literature: Advances and
Dynamics (JALDA) invites paper proposals for a special issue devoted to the
topic of intertheory dialogue and (in)commensurability between Vygotskian
sociocultural theory (SCT) and other approaches to second language (L2)
development.

SCT scholars have increasingly drawn on exogenous theories of language and
learning/development as well as methods for analyzing language, discourse, and
interaction in their work in the early 2000s. In addition, SCT insights have
become part of mainstream L2 research and are often invoked in non-SCT
research. However, it is not always clear whether, or in what ways, SCT and
other approaches to L2 research are commensurable. To promote progress in the
field of second language studies, it is crucial that we examine for the
intertheoretic commensurability of the distinct theoretical approaches to
second language learning. The aim of this Special Issue is, therefore, to
offer a substantive discussion of the compatibility of SCT and other
theoretical and methodological approaches to the study of L2 development. We
believe that casting systematic new light on concepts, categories, frameworks,
philosophical undercurrents, and ways of thinking about learning a second
language from multiple theoretical vantage points will contribute to
conceptual clarity, pluralistic integration where appropriate, and
synthesizing corpuses of empirical findings. 
We welcome empirical as well as conceptual contributions that explore the
relationship between SCT and other theories of L2 development and that help to
generate novel theoretical, methodological, and empirical insights for the
field. We are particularly interested in papers that critically engage with
one or more of the following topics:
- Operationalizations of language, discourse, and interaction
- Operationalizations of language learning and/or development
- Operationalizing evidence of language learning and/or development
- Contributions to language teaching research and practice
- Commensurability of ontological assumptions and/or epistemological
underpinnings 
- Contributions to a coherent and pluralistic (meta)theory of L2 development

Guidelines:
Authors are invited to submit a paper proposal of up to 500 words using the
following Google Form here by September 1, 2021. Authors who are invited to
