Language, Education, and Rights in Motion: Decolonial Perspectives on Ideologies and Displacement
This JELI special issue invites scholarship that explores how migration, displacement, and colonial legacies shape language ideologies and struggles for linguistic justice in education. We seek contributions centering the voices and agency of linguistically minoritized communities, Indigenous peoples, and displaced learners navigating inequitable systems. We particularly welcome work that examines how language rights are defined, enacted, and contested across educational spaces, and how decolonial perspectives challenge Orientalist and neoliberal framings of language and rights.
Abstract deadline: October 15, 2025
Guest Editors: Dr. Yalda M. Kaveh & Cory A. Buckband (Arizona State University)
