By foregrounding language practices in educational settings, this
timely volume offers a postcolonial critique of the languaging of
higher education and considers how Southern epistemologies can be
used to further the decolonization of post-secondary education in
the Global South. Offering a range of contributions from diverse
and minoritized scholars based in countries including South Africa,
Rwanda, Sudan, Qatar, Turkey, Portugal, Sweden, India, and Brazil,
The Languaging of Higher Education in the Global South
problematizes the use of language in various areas of higher
education. Chapters demonstrate both subtle and explicit ways in
which the language of pedagogy, scholarship, policy, and
partcipiation endorse and privelege Western constructs and
knowledge production, and utilize Southern theories and
epistemologies to offer an alternative way forward – practice and
research which applies and promotes Southern epistemologies and
local knowledges. The volume confronts issues including
integrationism, epistemic solidarity, language policy and ideology,
multilingualism, and the increasing use of technology in
institutions of higher education. This innovative book will be of
interest to researchers, scholars, and postgraduate students in the
fields of higher education, applied linguistics, and multicultural
education. Those with an interest in the decolonization of
education and language will find the book of particular use.
