This edited volume, dedicated to the experiences of individuals learning languages other than English (LOTEs) in diverse Asian contexts, aims to address the underrepresentation of these regions in the literature. Grounded in the multilingual turn in SLA, the volume recognizes learners as individuals within a multilingual society, possessing unique, complex, heterogeneous, and dynamic identities. The chapters delve into the motivational trajectories, multilingual identities, and conceptualizations of the ideal multilingual self. By exploring motivation in specific regions of Asia, including Greater China, Indonesia, Japan, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Pakistan, and Syria, this volume enhances our critical understanding of language learning motivation through empirical findings and conceptual insights. It will be of interest to students and scholars in second language acquisition, researchers in language learning motivation, and policymakers in language education.
