Description: Decolonising Multilingualism : Struggles to Decreate, Paperback by Phipps, Alison, ISBN 1788924045, ISBN-13 9781788924047, Brand New, Free P&P in the UK The author contends that multilingualism and its related language pedagogies are experienced as a colonial practice for many of the world's populations, showing that the learning and teaching of languages, the political economy of the organization of language curricula, and language policies favor colonial and imperial languages. She presents autoethnographic narratives, fragments, poems, interludes, critical reflections, and theoretical aspects to reflect on struggles and attempts to decolonize language learning and multilingualism. She begins with lessons learned from injury and pain as a starting point for resisting certain forms of knowledge and practice, then describes her experience of vulnerability in the context of her own refugee family, and the example of language in Aotearoa New Zealand.
