The first volume in our GLOBAL FORUM ON SOUTHERN EPISTEMOLOGIES book series will be released in June 2022!

This book series publishes independent volumes explores peripheralized ways of framing and conducting language studies in both the Global South and Global North. We are particularly interested in the 'geopolitics of knowledge' as it pertains to language studies and aim to illustrate how language scholarship in the Global North is partially indebted to diverse traditions of scholarship in the Global South. We are also keen to explore interfaces between language and other areas of human and non-human scholarship. Ultimately, our concern is not only epistemological; it is also political, educational and social. The books are part of the Global Forum, which is open and politically engaged. The Global Forum fosters collegiality and dialogue, using the technologies essential to productivity during the pandemic that have served our collective benefit. In the book series, we experiment with the format of the book, challenging the colonial concept of a single monologic authorial voice by integrating multiple voices, consistent with decoloniality and the democratic and politically engaged nature of our scholarship.
