""This volume showcases critical language studies and pedagogies situated in diverse contexts internationally, including classrooms, courtrooms, private homes, and pub- lic spaces. It illuminates theoretical, methodological, and pedagogical obstacles and af- fordances, demonstrating how multilingual and multimodal practices can formulate a critical tool for exploring interlocking relations between language, power, and society."" Ryuko Kubota, Ph.D. Professor, Language and Literacy Education Faculty of Education University of British Columbia ""This valuable volume addresses language-related issues of power, privilege, and marginaliza- tion head-on, utilizing critical analyses blending theory, research and practice. The research is set in a variety of contexts, from classrooms to courtrooms to families. I find the balance of academic rigor and passion for social justice compelling, even inspiring."" Stephanie Vandrick, Ph.D. Professor, Rhetoric and Language University of San Francisco ""More so than ever, we need resources and research presented in Reading in Language Stud- ies, Volume 8! The strength of this work lies in its powerful examples of real-life applications of critical theory in classrooms and communities to inform teaching, learning, and our global society. I recommend this volume for personal research and for institutional libraries. Faculty of education will find it a go-to resource to teaching and for student independent inquiry."" John L.
