• Part I: Dominant Language Constellations in Language Education Policy and Practice.- Chapter 1 Dominant Language Constellations in Education: Big Data, Patterns and Contexts.- Chapter 2 Language Education Policy through a DLC Lens: The Case of Urban Multilingualism.- Chapter 3 Embracing Multilingualism in Teacher Education in Finland? DLC as a Tool for Analysing the State of Multilingualism in Policy and Practice.- Chapter 4 Family Language Policy and Dominant Language Constellations: A Canadian Perspective.- Chapter 5 Promoting Plurilingual Competences in Primary Schools in Barcelona: A Dominant Language Constellation Approach to Teaching and Learning Languages.- Part II: Dominant Language Constellations and Identity.- Chapter 6 The Dominant Language Constellations of Immigrant Teacher Trainees in Israel: Russian, Hebrew and English.- Chapter 7 Educational and Career Opportunities for Refugee-Background Adults in Norway: A DLC Perspective.- Chapter 8 Exploring Identitiesand Life Stories of Multilingual Transnational Couples through the Lens of Multilinguality and Dominant Language Constellations.- Part III: Dominant Language Constellations through Visualization.-Chapter 9 Understanding Dominant Language Constellations through Analysis of Visual Linguistic Autobiographies by Foreign Language Student-Teachers in Germany.- Chapter 10 Languages as Ways of Being: The Linguistic Biography of a Nordic Nomad.

This volume is a strong contribution to the work on dominant language constellations. Comprised primarily of clearly laid out empirical studies which show how the DLC approach can be used and useful for studies in educational linguistics, the volume is satisfying reading for scholars who are new to DLC and those already familiarly with this approach to understanding multilingualism.Rita Elaine Silver, National Institute of Education (NIE), SingaporeEach chapter gives a very strong and insightful glance into individual and societal DLCs and picture of the absolutely overwhelming and alarming predominance of English in the world. The chapters deal with a broad variety of topics, institutions and users/learners, which gives the readers an excellent overview of current, ongoing research. DLC is a new concept alongside languages repertoires which opens up new questions and research areas which we have not seen before. Some of the chapters are very strong in their theoretical description and/or development, while others are very strong in their complex mixtures of methodologies that enable extremely detailed resultsBritta Hufeisen, Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany
