Unsettled hearing, responsible listening
In line with increasing forced migrations around the globe, there is also a growing need for ethical encounters between researchers and those forcefully displaced. This article focuses on responsible Listening, defined as the ethically motivated effort of researchers to conduct communication at eye level. However, findings have shown that listeners (e.g., researchers in institution or study settings) may already feel unsettled on the far more bas…
Confronting histories of inequality in exploring multilingual pedagogies for Rromani speakers
Multilingual pedagogies are a complex enterprise to train teachers for when languages with a history of inequality, discrimination and persecution are involved. Resorting to the example of two classroom interactions with Rromani-speaking immigrant students in Germany, and based on the perspective of Dominant Language Constellations, we present data from a project where teachers explore approaches to multilingual pedagogies. The findings point to …
Introduction
With this Special Issue, we take up two key topics of research on education and multilingualism: First, considering the persisting lack of guidance for teachers towards a multilingual turn, we focus on teacher professionalization, a term comprising both pre-service and in-service teachers with their biographical experiences and reflections.

Voices heard. Autobiographical accounts of language learning after forced migration

The Kindertransportees’ memories of …
The secret life of languages. Origin‐specific differences in L1/L2 acquisition by immigrant children
Focussing on Turkish immigrant children, in whom weak L1/L2 performance has repeatedly been reported, the article aims at providing explanations for origin‐specific differences between the L1/L2 acquisition of immigrant children from Turkey and former Yugoslavia living in Austria. The discussion focuses on the countries of origin, taking into account particularly their policies on (minority) language(s) and education. The resulting new explanator…
