Research output: Contribution to journalSpecial issuepeer-review

Abstract

The European Early Childhood Education Research Journal (EECERJ) defines its scope as being ‘multidisciplinary, embracing all related fields including psychology, sociology, child health and social work’. In this editorial for the EECERJ Special Issue on Multilingual Childhoods, we present our argument for educational linguistics to be included as a ‘related field’, as well as an overview of articles published between 2000 and 2020 investigating how multilingual issues have been addressed in EECERJ. A conclusion drawn from this review is that research into multilingualism in the early childhood education and care (ECEC) context draws inspiration from both educational research and linguistics.
