English as an International Language Education : Critical Intercultural Literacy Perspectives Hardback
Edited by Ahmed Sahlane, Rosalind Pritchard
Part of the English Language Education series
Hardback
Description
This volume provides an overview of current issues in English as an International Language (EIL) education and critical intercultural literacy pedagogy.
The different chapters are inspired by ‘critical interculturality’ as a decolonial project that seeks to interrogate the structures, conditions, and mechanisms of colonial power relations that still pervade our increasingly globalising postcolonial societies; they tend to perpetuate forms of discrimination such as sexism, racism, classism, heterosexism and linguicism. Divided into five sections, this collection critically examines English Language Teaching textbooks’ integration of intercultural dimensions, the promotion of intercultural literacy in teacher education programs, the management of cultural diversity in multicultural professional/business and educational situations, and the ‘decolonisation’ of the curriculum in various global educational and professional situations.
The book presents a range of linguistic approaches as a means of examining the nature of intercultural communication pertaining in EIL varied international contexts.
The chapters also reflect a wide diversity of perspectives from local contexts with global relevance and applicability. This book is an indispensable reference for business leaders, international relations stakeholders, education and linguistics students, educationists, textbook designers, teacher trainers and researchers of language and culture, critical pedagogy, multiculturalism studies, TESOL and English as a lingua franca (ELF).
