Summary: International Journal of Applied Linguistics focuses on the expertise about language and language experience.
The International Journal of Applied Linguistics publishes articles that focus on the mediation between expertise about language and experience of language. The journal seeks to develop an awareness of the way language works, how it affects peoples’ lives, and what interventions are desirable and feasible to make in differing domains of language use and learning.
The language of this journal is English, but its concerns are by no means confined to what goes on in English native-speaking communities. We want to encourage submissions that show what issues in applied linguistics arise in different regions and cultures, and how far they might call for different perspectives and different kinds of mediation. What we are interested in is how the particular and the general are inter-related - in short, papers which are international in the sense that they show explicitly how local issues of language use or learning exemplify more global concerns.
