This Handbook centers on language(s) in the Global South/s and the many ways in which both "language" and the "Global South" are conceptualized, theorized, practiced, and reshaped.

Drawing on 31 chapters situated in diverse geographical contexts, and four additional interviews with leading scholars, this text showcases:

  • Issues of decolonization
  • Promotion of Southern epistemologies and theories of the Global South/s
  • A focus on social/applied linguistics
  • An added focus on the academy
  • A nuanced understanding of global language scholarship.

It is written for emerging and established scholars across the globe as it positions Southern epistemologies, language scholarship, and decolonial theories into scholarship surrounding multiple themes and global perspectives.

Sinfree Makoni is Professor in Applied Linguistics and African Studies at Pennsylvania State University, USA. He has published extensively on language policy and planning, health communication, and decoloniality and southern epistemologies. His recent book co-authored with Alistair Pennycook, Innovations and Challenges in Applied Linguistics from the Global South, was shortlisted by the British Association of Applied Linguistics.

Anna Kaiper-Marquez is an Associate Director and Assistant Teaching Professor at the Institute for the Study of Adult Literacy and the Goodling Institute for Research in Family Literacy at Pennsylvania State University, USA. Her research interests include adult literacy, English language learning, and domestic work worldwide.

Lorato Mokwena is based in the Linguistics Department at the University of the Western Cape, South Africa. Her research passion involves linguistic landscape with a niche focus on orality. Her latest publication explored how the use of oral route directions problematizes the conceptual distinction between "urban" and "rural" spaces.
