This volume provides a new perspective on prevailing discourses on
translanguaging and multilingualism by looking at 'glocal'
languages, local languages which have been successfully
"globalized". Focusing on European languages recreated in Latin
America, the book features examples from languages underexplored in
the literature, including Brazilian Portuguese, Amerinidian
poetics, and English, Spanish, Portuguese outside Europe, as a
basis for advocating for an approach to language education rooted
in critical pedagogy and post-colonial perspectives and countering
hegemonic theories of globalization. While rooted in a discussion
of the South, the book offers a fresh voice in current debates on
language education that will be of broader interest to students and
scholars across disciplines, including language education,
multilingualism, cultural studies, and linguistic anthropology.
