SUMMARY
The edited volume 鈥淒ecolonizing Linguistics鈥� provides the reader with 500 pages of written text. Throughout the volume, colonial or colonizing linguistics is marked by certain traits including domination, extraction, exclusion, isolation, and false claims to objectivity. Therefore, decolonizing linguistics means to bond, meet, exchange, work for communities, include marginalized voices, and make transparent one鈥檚 own positionality.
In addition to Introduction and Conclusion, the editor

"Code Copying" is a concise exposition of Lars Johanson's code-copying model, a theoretical framework for the study of contact-induced processes which has informed much of the author's research and writing. The book is broken into eleven chapters and is one hundred and twenty-five pages long, not including the front matter, references and indexes.
Ch. 1 "The Code-Copying Model" (1-17) introduces the foundational concepts and defines the operative terms. The term code refers to any lang

The advertised postdoc is part of the Learning domain in C-LaBL. This domain studies the interplay of multilingualism and learning within individuals, exploring how linguistic distance between languages interacts with language exposure and experience, with a clear focus on educational aspects such as literacy and academic achievement. To this end, we will undertake a series of controlled interventions and carefully planned experiments tapping into various aspects of linguistic competence. We wil
The advertised postdoctoral fellow position will conduct work within the Brain domain of C-LaBL.
The Brain domain examines the degree to which relative language distance (RLD) between the languages in a multilingual mind impacts on neurocognitive outcomes in a multitude of aspects including (i) how bi-/multilinguals learn new languages, (ii) how these languages interact, (iii) how bi-/multilinguals control their language system, and ultimately, (iv) how the mind (cognition) and brain (structure
The advertised postdoc is part of the Language domain in C-LaBL. This domain studies numerous language/dialect combinations in a concerted effort to probe the mental mechanisms of interacting languages/varieties. A core goal is to establish what measures of linguistic similarities, differences, and distance between varieties are cognitively relevant for crosslinguistic influence (CLI). Our approach is empirically driven: We systematically investigate the presence and extent of CLI in multilingua
