“Shades of Decolonial Voices in Linguistics” book cover.

On 12 September 2023, the book “Shades of Decolonial Voices in Linguistics” was published by Multilingual Matters. This is the second volume of the book series Global Forum on Southern Epistemologies, which is concerned primarily with exploring peripheralized ways of framing and conducting language studies in both the Global South and Global North – a concern which is not only epistemological, but also political, educational and social.

The current edition argues that Linguistics as a field of study has been shaped by colonization and needs a critical review. The work was organized by the Director of African Studies at Pennsylvania State University (USA) Sinfree Makoni, in partnership with professor Ashraf Abdelhay from the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies (Qatar), the Director of Family Literacy at the National Center for Families Learning (USA) Anna Kaiper-Marquez, the PhD student in the Department of Applied Linguistics, research assistant at the Global Virtual Forum and tutor for the KAUST program at Pennsylvania State University (USA) Višnja Milojičić, and the associate professor at Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC) Cristine Severo.
