In a dozen chapters, international contributors make a case for local social practices, communicative conventions, linguistic realities, and knowledge paradigms for informing language policies and practices in classrooms and communities at a time of increasing globalization. Primarily addressed to researchers and graduate students in applied linguistics, the collection originated from a call for papers for a special-topic issue of the Journal of Language, Identity, and Education. The volume advocates a process of "globalization from below" in which the global is not simply applied or translated to the local level, but rather, the local is recognized as containing complex values of diversity, multilingualism, and plurality that take primary importance.
