Applied linguistics and language: towards radical indisciplinarity

ABSTRACT

This article puts forward a view of Applied Linguistics and language committed to radical INdisciplinarity. To achieve this goal it congregates authors from different fields to reflect both upon historical processes of territorialization forged in the so-called Modernity and possibilities of transgression. The central argument is that border thinking involves many challenges, especially reexamining familiar norms and making them strange.
