This collection brings together a range of perspectives on code-meshing as a valuable 'way to promote linguistic democracy of English and to increase the acquisition and egalitarian, effective use of English in school, in government, in public, …at home', and elsewhere (xx). Contributors address various concerns about how and why code-meshing can be taught in schools and what kind of 'programmatic and curricular changes' in the teaching of writing need to be enacted in order to shift into this new model of code-meshing, which is more in keeping with the changing trends in a globalized society and an era of increased diversity.
