Integrating lucid theoretical exposition with a series of vivid first-hand accounts of university teaching, this book is a vital point of reference for anyone asking what decoloniality and linguistic citizenship might actually mean for their own practice in higher education.
Ben Rampton, Professor of Applied Linguistics and Sociolinguistics, King’s College London, UK
Deepening linguistic citizenship, Bock and Stroud present here pluriversal ways of acting linguistically in order to disengage from language coloniality. Centering voices from South Africa, language is presented here as loving entanglements with Others, opening up alternative forms of knowledge and new indexical orderings to reimagine multilingualism and social justice work worldwide.
Ofelia García, Professor Emerita, The Graduate Center, City University of New York, USA
As an exploration into the transformative potential of multilingualism, this edited collection is an important contribution to sociolinguistics.

Index
Multilingualism and diversity are fast becoming defining characteristics of global education. This is because human mobility has increased exponentially over the past two decades, bringing about an increase in socioeconomic, cultural and faith-based diversity with consequences for citizenship, identity, education, and practices of language and literacy
(among others).
The Multilingualisms and Diversities in Education series takes a global perspective of the 21st-century societal diversities. It looks at the languages through which these diversities are conveyed, and how they are changing the theoretical foundations and practice of formal and non-formal education. Multilingualisms and diversities in this series are understood as dynamic and variable phenomena, processes and realities. They are viewed alongside: classroom practices (including curriculum, assessment, methodologies); teacher development (pre- and in-service; and in non-formal education); theory-building; research and evaluation; and policy considerations.
Volumes in the series articulate the opportunities and challenges afforded by contemporary diversities and
multilingualisms across global settings at local, national and international levels. A distinctive aim of the series is to provide a platform for reciprocal exchanges of expertise among stakeholders located in different southern and northern contexts.
