Moving beyond clichés, this volume introduces the ‘unsung maverick’ not as a heroic figure but as a precarious rope-dancer performing vital and innovative work without a safety net. Through powerful, first-hand accounts, ranging from autoethnographies to poetic experiments, the contributors pull apart dominant paradigms and reveal how systemic biases and linguistic hierarchies have silenced crucial perspectives. Representing a platform for methodological rebellion and epistemic justice, this book showcases how interculturality is lived and reimagined from the ground up.
For anyone ready to move past the usual references and discover the fertile and creative potential at the edges of ICER, this edited volume urges us to listen, learn and help shape the conversation about interculturality today.
For over 25 years, Fred Dervin has contributed to redefining intercultural communication, education and research. The University of Helsinki scholar challenges conventional paradigms with interdisciplinary insight, inspiring scholars, practitioners and students to critically rethink and creatively reshape interculturality for our complex worlds. A defining characteristic of his 300+ publications is his commitment to the continuous re-examination of his own work. Stella Anne Achieng holds a PhD in Linguistics from the University of Lorraine (France). She is an associate member of the Centre de Recherche sur les Médiations (CREM) at the same institution. Her work focuses on interculturality and intercultural competence in higher education and foreign language education.
