Produktbeschreibung
This book offers insight into the spread and impact of English language education in China within China's broader educational, social, economic and political changes. The author's critical perspective informs readers on the connections between language education and political ideologies in the context of globalizing China. The discussion of the implications concerning language education is of interest for current and future language policy makers, language educators and learners. Including both diachronic and synchronic accounts or China's language education policy, this volume highlights how China as a modern nation-state has been seeking a more central position globally, and the role that English education and the promotion of such education played in that effort in recent decades.
Rezensionen
"The scope and depth this book achieves in deconstructing the ideological discourses of English in China make its contribution particularly valuable. For researchers, policy makers, and language educators who want to understand English education beyond classroom practices, this is the book. Given the rise of China in the globalising arena, insights gained from China's appropriations of English in this book also have significant implications for the understanding of English development in global contexts." (Weihong Wang, System, Issue 53, 2015)
