Abstract: The book review discusses "Applied Linguistics and Politics," edited by Christian Chun, which explores the intersection of linguistics and politics in various areas such as media, economy, culture and identity, affect, and education. The book offers innovative theories, methodologies, and pedagogies to address the challenges posed by de-centered and anti-globalization movements. It emphasizes the need for applied linguists to develop counter-hegemonic approaches and engage with the general public. The review suggests that the book provides valuable insights for scholars in applied linguistics, cultural studies, political science, language educators, learners, and activists interested in promoting social equity.
