Sociocultural and Power-Relational Dimensions of Multilingual Writing: Recommendations for Deindustrializing Writing Education - Paperback

by Amir Kalan (Author)

This book examines the writing practices of three adult multilingual writers through the prism of their writing in English as an additional language. It illustrates some of the social, cultural and political contexts of the writers' literacy activities and argues for a writing pedagogy that reflects the complexity of writing as a social practice.
