Decolonising Multilingualism in Africa: Recentering Silenced Voices from the Global South

by Leketi Makalela and Finex Ndhlovu

This book interrogates and problematises African multilingualism as it is currently understood in language education and research. It challenges the enduring colonial matrices of power hidden within mainstream conceptions of multilingualism that have been propagated in the Global North and then exported to the Global South.
