Reviews

A landmark in the emerging field of language and social justice studies. Long understood as merely something we think with, language is here recognized as the sociopolitical accomplishment that it truly is. The authors show us that from this key understanding, we can advance social justice reforms. -- Paul V. Kroskrity, University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), USA An important and timely book which offers new and thought-provoking insights into a range of topical language and social justice issues around the world. -- Professor Helen Sauntson, York St John University, UK
