This groundbreaking volume, compiling critical perspectives of English language teaching in China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Korea, and Sri Lanka, confronts colonial legacies observed in educational practices and policies that perpetuate a divide between the privileged and the underprivileged. ?The critical reflections scrutinize the nature of English as a commodified gatekeeper and simultaneously provide alternative visions for language education. - Ryuko Kubota, Professor, The university of British Columbia.Transgressions (Rotterdam, Netherlands) ;v. 82.English languageStudy and teachingAsiaEnglish languageStudy and teachingForeign speakersEnglish languageStudy and teachingEnglish languageStudy and teachingForeign speakers.370Sung Kiwan1480952Pederson Rod1480953MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910790821403321Critical ELT practices in Asia3697769UNINA
