O Quinto Movimento
Este livro é um depoimento sobre a Centralidade da Questão Nacional, como principiei compreendê-la desde minha formação e na história da formação social brasileira. É também uma reflexão sobre o Quinto Movimento, como denomino as iniciativas necessárias à retomada da construção material e espiritual de nossa Pátria. Centralidade da Questão Nacional é a ideia de que a Nação é o eixo organizador da vida social na presente etapa da história da civilização; a convicção segundo a qual o Estado Nacional é a organização apta a proteger os valores da dignidade da pessoa humana e a crença na certeza de que viver em um país livre de qualquer submissão a outro país é o mais sagrado dos direitos do homem depois do direito à vida.

From Southern Theory to Decolonizing Sociolinguistics
This book, which combines scholarly articles with interviews, seeks to imagine a decolonized sociolinguistics. All the chapters are firmly grounded in southern approaches to knowledge production, focusing not only on epistemology but also on the complex relationship between epistemology and ontology. The chapters address issues ranging from author positionality to the central theorists of a southern sociolinguistics, and roam from the language classroom to the church, in ways which invite us to begin to decolonize ourselves and rethink normative assumptions about everything from academic writing to research methods and language teaching. The book provides scholars and teachers with inspiration for how to teach linguistics in ways that challenge colonial hegemonies and that allow one to ‘do’ sociolinguistics otherwise. It also makes a powerful argument that debates about decolonization, southern theory and social justice are not just academic pursuits: what is at stake is our future and how we imagine it.
