9781853592447: Towards Global Multilingualism: European Models and Asian Realities

Synopsis

The book brings together a variety of articles from Europe and Asia in order to raise questions about the applicability of European models of bilingualism and bilingual education to the linguistic, social and educational realities of Singapore, Malaysia and Brunei. The result is a profound rethinking of accepted views concerning multilingualism in Europe and worldwide. In particular, many of the contributors raise doubts about the applicability of widely-held views on language pedagogy associated with the teaching of English as a foreign language and the so-called communicative approach to language learning to the Asian reality.
