Tommaso M. Milani is George C. and Jane G. Greer Professor of Applied Linguistics, Jewish Studies, African Studies, and Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. His research aims to understand how power (in)balances are reproduced and contested through meaning-making resources. While identifying strongly with critical discourse analysis, he is not committed to a single theoretical paradigm. In his analyses of language and power he has drawn upon different theoretical frameworks, which include but are not limited to, language ideology, intersectionality, queer theory, southern/decolonial perspectives and theories of affect. Together with Susan Ehrlich, he co-edits the journal Language in Society.
