Abstract "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, before concluding that decolonization in Linguistics is a process with no definite end point, which cannot be completely successful until societies are decolonized too"-- Provided by publisher.
