Hirsch, Tijana; Lee, Jin Sook – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2018

Body without Organs: Notes on Deleuze & Guattari, Critical Race Theory and the Socius of Anti-Racism
Ibrahim, Awad – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2015

At first glance, especially for language instructors and researchers, these two epistemological frameworks not only…

Makoe, Pinky; McKinney, Carolyn – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2014
Existing research on language in South African schooling frequently draws attention to the problematic hegemony of English and the lack of access to quality education in the home language of the majority of learners, often drawing on the metaphor of a gap or a disjuncture between post-apartheid language in education policy (LiEP) and its…
