ABOUT THE AUTHORS
Daniel N. Silva teaches applied linguistics at Universidade Estadual de Campinas in Brazil. He researches language, politics, violence and hope in Rio de Janeiro favelas. His work problematizes the mediatization of violence in Brazil by looking at alternative communicable models as empirical loci of resistance.
Jerry Won Lee is Professor in the Department of English at the University of California, Irvine. His last book, Locating Translingualism (Cambridge UP), is the winner of the 2024 American Association for Applied Linguistics Book Award.
Language as Hope is available in hardback and Open Access: www.cambridge.org/9781009306522
