The Routledge Handbook of Language and Race provides an up-to-date overview of language and race from a modern global perspective. Challenging the concept of race that has been defined by global North scholarship, this book interrogates these academic conventions and encourages the reader to look beyond these narrow viewpoints of language and race.
Taking a decolonizing approach, this Handbook includes contributions from academics from Africa, Latin America, Southeast Asia and the Pacific as well as those based in Europe and North America with the aim of deconstructing the center of power into a direction where not only marginalized people are given a voice but also where marginalized scholars can be heard. Chapters in the volume review the state of the art of the study of language and race, capture the prevailing realities of race as experienced in the localities which the authors represent, critique the prevailing conceptualization to advance debate, and provide an account of specific ethnographic case studies.
The Routledge Handbook of Language and Race is essential reading for all students and academics who want to broaden their understanding of this crucial topic.
