Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 36(6), pp.571-586.https://hdl.handle.net/10566/20288https://doi.org/10.1080/01434632.2014.978870This article offers a narrative of the University of the Western Cape, South Africa, from the prism of the duality of language as a co-modality (with people, protest, policy and practices) for constituting the institution in whole or in part and as a reflection of its co-modalities. For its framing, the narrative eclectically draws on language politics and policy, a grammar of multilingual landscapes and the epistemology of linguistics. Besides contributing to a historiography of university language policies, the narrative has implications for language policy analysis.enDiversityLanguage policyMultilingualismProtestUWCArticle
