While acknowledging that neoliberal agencies can appropriate diverse languages and language practices, including resources and dispositions theorized by scholars of multilingualism, it argues that a distinction must be made between the different language ideologies informing communicative practices. Those of neoliberal agencies are motivated by distinct ideological orientations that diverge from the theorization of multilingual practices by critical applied linguists. In addressing this issue, the book draws on the author's empirical research on skilled migration to demonstrate how sub-Saharan African professionals in English-dominant workplaces in the UK, USA, Australia, and South Africa resist the neoliberal communicative expectations and employ alternate practices informed by critical dispositions. These practices have the potential to transform neoliberal orientations on material development. The book labels the latter as informed by a postcolonial language ideology, to distinguish them from those of neoliberalism. While neoliberal agencies approach languages as being instrumental for profit-making purposes, the author's informants focus on the synergy between languages to generate new meanings and norms, which are strategically negotiated in pursuit of ethical interests, inclusive interactions, and holistic ecological development. As such, the book clearly illustrates that the way critical scholars and multilinguals relate to language diversity is different from the way neoliberal policies and agencies use multilingualism for their own purposes. 001358284 650_0 $$aEducation. 001358284 650_0 $$aLanguage policy. 001358284 650_0 $$aEducation and state. 001358284 650_0 $$aducation and state. 001358284 650_0 $$aEmigration and immigration. 001358284 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001358284 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319412429 001358284 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in linguistics,$$x2197-0009 001358284 852__ $$bebk 001358284 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-41243-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001358284 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1358284$$pGLOBAL_SET 001358284 980__ $$aBIB 001358284 980__ $$aEBOOK 001358284 982__ $$aEbook 001358284 983__ $$aOnline 001358284 994__ $$a92$$bISE
