Reviews

This latest anthology in the book series, as the title suggests, sets an example for an emerging decolonial/postcolonial approach to ecolinguistics as a global ideology. By drawing on such Latin American frameworks as ecosystemic linguistics and ecosystemic discourse analysis, the eleven closely-connected but diversely-presented chapters offer an all-round critique of the prevailing anthropocentric ideologies, for instance, linguistic imperialism, manifested in various domains such as environmental education and tourism industries, in search for such notions of sustainable tourism as new ecoideologies to live by. * Wenjuan Zhou, Associate Professor,  Inner Mongolia University of Technology, P. R. China  * This book opens a window on ecolinguistics as it is being thought and lived from diverse Global South perspectives. The chapters offer grounded, original insights into the links among language, justice, and ecology. A timely and much-needed contribution to the field as a whole. * Douglas Ponton, University of Catania, Italy *
