Reviews

""In bringing together previously diverse research traditions and consolidating a platform from which to discuss multilingualism and language education in a broad sense, this volume makes an important contribution both locally and globally...In the dialogue around language education and multilingualism, the volume should be read as a much overdue long-turn from Colombian scholars, and we would all do well to listen to what they have to tell us."" - Peter Browning, University of Birmingham, UK, Journal of English as a Lingua Franca
