Abstract:

For sixty years, applied linguistics has stood at the crossroads of
language and society, by meeting real-world needs. <i>60 Years of
Applied Linguistics: Toward more engaged research</i> offers a
compelling reflection on the field’s evolution while calling for a
renewed commitment to socially responsive, ethically grounded
scholarship. Inspired by the momentum of the 2023 AILA World Congress
in France, this collective volume brings together leading
international applied linguists to examine how applied linguistics has
transformed in response to shifting political landscapes,
technological change, and global challenges. From different
perspectives, the contributors explore how research has both
shaped—and been shaped by—the world we live in. Looking ahead, the
book advocates for research that reaches beyond academic borders,
engaging with communities, policymakers, and practitioners to confront
contemporary issues. This book is an essential reference for scholars,
students, and practitioners. It celebrates a rich intellectual legacy
while charting bold new directions.
