Challenging Epistemic Injustices in Swedish Adult Education as Ethical Issues
Based on a longitudinal study comprising two consecutive action-based and linguistic-ethnographic projects in Swedish adult education offered to students labeled as intellectually disabled, this paper examines how teachers in these programs challenged structural injustices. Guided by Nikolaidis’ (2023) theorizing of structural epistemic injustice in education, we show how two teachers challenged diminishing educational opportunities, limited less…
“And then what?”
Drawing from linguistic ethnographic data in what is referred to as accommodated language education for adults, including migrant learners with PTSD, migration stress, deafness, hearing impairment and/or intellectual disability, we here focus on the latter category of learners, and their teacher, in one Swedish language learning group. We analyze and discuss their work with storytelling, which we relate to a crip linguistics approach, forming a s…
Epistemic Reciprocity Through a Decolonial Crip Literacy in Accommodated Language Education for Adults

This was a parliamentary decision that later led to the provision of bimodal-bilingual education and the keeping of a separate school system for deaf students. However, today, STS is not granted the same rights as the five declared minority languages and not all deaf children in …

Through ethnographic and netnographic fieldwork of parenting experiences it is revealed that monolingual ideologies conflate with iconic figures reproducing and reinforcing language norms. Some parents - i.e. non-white non-Swedish speaking - are made into 'language project…
