Recenzii

A wonderful and rewarding collection of contributions which critically examine how English can take over the language curriculum in schools throughout the world, almost always at the expense of other languages. Andy Kirkpatrick, author of English as a Lingua Franca in ASEAN: A Multilingual ModelEnglish Language as Hydra is both poignant and honest in its reasoned and passionate evocation of this language's entrenched link with some of the ills of the world and its impact on speakers' subjectivities. Ruanni Tupas, author of (Re)making Society: The Politics of Language, Discourse, and Identity in the PhilippinesEnglish Language as Hydra opens our eyes to how empires and imperialism operate through linguistic ideologies and discourse strategies as powerful tools of domination - often with the active participation of the leaders of subaltern peoples and minorities. Rainer Enrique Hamel, author of Language Empires, Linguistic Imperialism and the Future of Global Languages
