New book
Indigenous Language for Development Communication in the Global South



The book is edited by Abiodun Salawu, Tshepang Bright Molale, Enrique 
Uribe-Jongbloed and Mohammad Sahid Ullah. This edited collection brings 
together voices from the margins in underrepresented regions of the 
Global South, within the context of scholarship focusing on indigenous 
languages and development communication. Contributors bring together 
research from often-overlooked parts of the world to engage in dialogue 
towards an understanding of the similarities and differences between 
issues of language and development in the Global South, presenting cases 
as a starting point for further research and discussions about 
indigenous language and development communication in Latin America, 
Africa, and Asia. Scholars of communication, sociology, linguistics, and 
development studies will find this book of particular interest
