This volume represents the first collection of essays on research dedicated to the work of scholars and experts from Bosnia and Herzegovina. It provides programmatic state-of-the-art overviews of current issues in the language sciences and their applications in first, second, and bilingual language acquisition in naturalistic and tutored contexts, and brings together disciplinary perspectives from linguistics, sociolinguistics, language teaching, education and intercultural communication. This book will be of particular interest to anyone wishing to know the value, and the pitfalls, of current research, to understand its various applications for foreign language education in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and to appreciate the qualities of rigor and trustworthiness required to evaluate and interpret current studies in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Indeed, this volume provides an informed perspective on the field's developments and an insightful analysis of interdisciplinary studies in the country.
