Special Issue: The Erasure and Revitalization of Indigenous Cultures and Languages
The destruction of Indigenous languages, or linguicide, has had and continues to have catastrophic effects on Indigenous cultures,
identities, knowledges, and the overall well-being of Indigenous peoples and communities. While there has been growing international commitment to raising awareness about and protecting Indigenous languages in recent years, research and publication on this
subject remains limited.
With this in mind, Genocide
Studies International wishes
to dedicate a special issue to the topic of Indigenous language erasure and revitalization with the objective of raising awareness around this issue from an interdisciplinary and comparative perspective. The editors seek submissions from scholars across disciplines
that contextualize Indigenous language erasure as it relates to human rights, conflict, exploitation, colonialism, racism, bigotry, sexism, oppression, and globalization. Manuscripts that explore gaps, challenges, and opportunities for action in protecting
and revitalizing Indigenous languages are also welcomed.
This special issue aims to bring together a collection of papers that capture a broad cross-section of concepts, experiences, stories,
and issues pertaining to the theme so as to inform policy, action, and best practices on Indigenous language protection and revitalization across scales, and geographical and disciplinary boundaries.
Paper submission deadlines (early
submissions encouraged): September 1, 2023
