Neoliberalism and English Language Education Policies in the Arabian Gulf: Routledge Research in Language Education
Autor Osman Barnawien Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 iun 2019
Using data collected from a wide range of sources, this thought-provoking book documents the inner workings of neoliberalism across a strategic geographical area of the Islamic world. The book teases apart the complex issues surrounding the ways in which access to English has been envisioned, contested, and protected from being challenged among different players within and between the Gulf countries. Osman Z. Barnawi explores the intensifying ideological debates between Islamic culture and Western neoliberal values, and questions whether Islamic values and traditions have been successfully harmonised with neoliberal capitalist development strategies for nation building in the Arabian Gulf region.
Neoliberalism and English Language Education Policies in the Arabian Gulfwill be of interest to academics, researchers and postgraduates working in the fields of language education and, more specifically, TESOL, applied linguistics, education policy, and teacher education.

Recenzii
‘Osman Barnawi's well-researched exploration of the intersections of neoliberal ideologies and practices re-shaping English language policies and their implementations and ensuing resistances in the contexts of the Arabian Gulf countries is a highly significant and much-needed contribution to the growing field of research on neoliberalism's worldwide impact.’ - Christian W. Chun, Assistant Professor, University of Massachusetts Boston, USA.
‘Barnawi demonstrates how neoliberalism functions not merely as an economic project, but as a cultural-ideological one as well. His sharp, detailed analysis of English-language policies in the Gulf States reveals that the drive to lure private investment and satisfy global markets not only displaces the learning of Arabic, but facilitates a decrease in overall funding for such common goods as education and social services, reduces the aims of education to profit and wealth accumulation, and may serve to compromise Islamic values of cooperation and solidarity. Ultimately, Barnawi’s call for a sustained, critical examination of the role of neoliberalism within Arab societies offers an opportunity to ask important questions about the regimes of truth that shape the priorities of nation-states and our everyday lives.’ - Michael J. Dumas, Graduate School of Education, University of California, Berkeley, USA.
