Drawing on frameworks from applied linguistics and critical discourse analysis, this volume employs a linguistics approach to understanding race and racism in Latin America, with a particular focus on Peru. Building on recent debates in Peru on cultural and biological definitions of race, the book seeks to re-examine the relationship between race and culture not as a dichotomy but as one rooted in and shaped by specific historical moments. Similarly, the volume uses this discussion as a jumping-off point from which to explore notions of identity informed by language as used in local context, rather than as a fixed social category. Offering new perspectives on discursive practices of race and racism in Peru and Latin America, this collection is key reading for students and researchers in sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, anthropology, and Latin American studies.

This edited book examines decolonization in applied linguistics, focusing on language teacher preparation across the Global North and South. It brings together diverse voices to challenge colonial legacies and promote more just, inclusive, and locally grounded approaches to education. Organized into three sections—challenges, programs, and strategies—the volume first explores systemic barriers that continue to shape language education. It then highlights successful models from varied global contexts, including Southeast Asia, Europe, and the Americas, that reimagine language teacher preparation through critical pedagogy, translanguaging, and community collaboration. The final section offers practical strategies for future action, such as the ethical use of technology to empower marginalized voices in the classroom.With key themes of decolonization, applied linguistics, language teacher education, social justice, and Global North–Global South collaboration, this collection provides essential insights for educators, researchers, and policymakers seeking to reshape language teaching in more equitable and culturally responsive ways.
