The Palgrave Encyclopedia of Multilingualism, Language Variation, and Language Teaching



Call for Entries

The Palgrave Encyclopedia of Multilingualism, Language Variation, and Language Pedagogy is thematically structured into 4 sections and each has a number of sub-sections on specific areas of coverage.

Each section welcomes conceptual entries, case studies, and pedagogical-oriented entries. Entries can be conceptual/theoretical that define key concepts, present key figures and collected corpora; empirical studies can be case studies and corpus-based research; and pedagogical-oriented entries focus on the implications of multilingualism and language variation for language teaching.



​These are the 4 sections (including some suggested topics):



1. Multilingualism and its Historical Development

2. The Psycholinguistics of Multilingualism

3. The Sociolinguistics of Multilingualism

4. Multilingualism and Language Pedagogy
