Reinventing literacies in the age of mobility: an epilogue
Umeå University, Faculty of Arts, Department of language studies. Stockholms universitet.ORCID iD: 0000-0003-4980-9487
2022 (English)In: Literacies in the age of mobility: literacy practices of adult and adolescent migrants / [ed] Annika Norlund Shaswar; Jenny Rosén, Palgrave Macmillan, 2022, p. 263-284Chapter in book (Refereed)
Abstract [en]

This epilogue considers how an increased focus on mobility influences the theoretical development of the term literacies. How we understand the concept of literacies has consequences not only for what we focus on in studies about literacies, but also for the pedagogical implications and possibilities that these studies can offer. Reflections about how to unthink, rethink and reinvent literacies in mobility are developed throughout the epilogue by discussing the concept of language, the multilingual turn (May, 2014a), literacies as translingual practice (Canagarajah, 2013a) and various power aspects in relation to literacies in mobility, e.g. issues of social inequality and social justice. The chapter shows how translingual, translocal, multimodal, and embodied perspectives open up for new understandings of literacies.
