Aims & Scope

Submissions that are directly or indirectly related to language policies in Africa are considered in-scope, insofar as they address the position of African languages (either past, present or future). Submissions of a purely linguistic nature (e.g. descriptions of language use in particular situations) are likely to be considered out-of-scope. Authors are requested to include a description of how their submissions add to existing knowledge, either in the abstract, the introduction or the conclusion of the text. As an example: reports of surveys on language attitudes among groups of students are not likely to be accepted, unless they contribute a new angle not already reported in the literature.
