Shades of Decolonial Voices in Linguistics

This book argues that Linguistics has been shaped by colonization. It outlines how linguistic practices may be decolonized and the challenges which this poses to linguists. It concludes that decolonization in Linguistics is a process with no definite end point and cannot be completely successful until societies are decolonized too.
