Note(s) : "Contributors to this volume came together to discuss the problems and promise of
African multilingualism at a joint meeting of the Annual Conference on African Linguistics
and the Georgetown University Roundtable on Languages and Linguistics in Washington,
D.C., in March 2013. As part of that joint conference, a workshop on language and
education in Africa was organized by Carolyn Adger of the Center for Applied Linguistics.
That workshop became the inspiration for this volume."--Introduction. - Includes bibliographical references and index
