Reviews

This exciting and innovative edited volume is the much-needed answer to the question of what socially responsible multilingual literacy practices in internationalized higher education look like. By viewing the socialization of academic discourse through an asset-based approach, the contributing authors have effectively focused their analyses of multilingual literacy practices on international students' linguistic and cultural resources. A must-read for all those interested in multilingual literacies in these contexts. * Jim McKinley, University College London, UK * This volume offers valuable insights into academic discourse socialization in the context of international student mobility. Theoretically and methodologically innovative approaches are utilized to explore the complex and often contested socialization processes through which multilingual learners develop languages, literacies, and identities as part of global study and careers. * Amanda Kibler, Oregon State University, USA *
