Why is it important?
This work is important because it draws attention to the complexity of knowledge construction, and how its complexity goes beyond the simple linguistic factor.
Perspectives
I hope this paper brings more insights into the complex process of knowledge construction. I also hope that it draws more attention to the different challenges faced by researchers who write from outside the Anglophone world, and encourage a better understanding of the value of their works.
