In this book, David Gramling presents original new insights into the topical subject of multilingualism, describing its powerful social, economic and political discourses. On one hand, it is under acute pressure to bear the demands of new global supply-chains, profit margins, and supranational unions, and on the other it is under pressure to make way for what some consider to be better descriptors of linguistic practice, such as translanguaging. The book shows how multilingualism is usefully able to encompass complex, divergent, and sometimes opposing experiences and ideas, in a wide array of planetary contexts - fictitious and real, political and social, North and South, colonial and decolonial, individual and collective, oppressive and liberatory, embodied and prosthetic, present and past."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Multilingualism $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Multilingualism $x Social aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Language and languages $x Study and teaching. 650 0 $a Language policy. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Gramling, David, 1976- $t Invention of multilingualism $d Cambridge, UK ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2021 $z 9781108780667 $w (DLC) 2021024751 830 0 $a Key topics in applied linguistics. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220802021053.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=71C2B12EE23911EC9D80461122ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
