Publisher: Blackwell Publishing

The International Journal of Applied Linguistics publishes articles that
focus on the mediation between expertise about language and experience of
language. The journal seeks to develop an awareness of the way language
works, how it affects peoples' lives, and what interventions are desirable
and feasible to make in differing domains of language use and learning.

Articles in InJAL should explicitly address the 'So what?' question: How do
ideas, observations, results, suggestions presented in a paper relate to
actual 'real world' problems involving language? How could or should what is
discussed in a paper be followed up, or followed through, to practical
proposals? Is there a convincing explicit connection between the
disciplinary areas the author draws on and the domains where people engage
with language? 

The journal thus conceives of applied linguistics as essentially being a
process which seeks a negotiated settlement of language problems through the
reconciliation of different and sometimes conflicting perspectives.
