This review situates their work within the plurilingual turn, offering a brief description of the book’s contents and highlighting its contribution to the field of education.</p>}, number={2}, journal={EuroAmerican Journal of Applied Linguistics and Languages}, author={Gasca Jiménez, Laura}, year={2018}, month={Dec.}, pages={110–113} }
