The volume covers the following topics: *Historical and theoretical perspectives *Language ecologies of selected countries and regions, focus on Asia, Australia, Africa *Language ecologies of dispersed and diasporic communities, esp. Chinese, Malay, Moroccan *Classroom language ecologies in multilingual contexts *Language ecology of literacies, oracies and discourses This is one of ten volumes of the Encyclopedia of Language and Education published by Springer. The Encyclopedia bears testimony to the dynamism and evolution of the language and education field, as it confronts the ever-burgeoning and irrepressible linguistic diversity and ongoing pressures and expectations placed on education around the world.
