Abstract

This book focuses on private tutoring (sometimes also known as “shadow education”), an important but neglected topic in applied linguistics and language education research. Private tutoring has become a popular out-of-school learning activity worldwide. While its scope and definition are expanding, private tutoring commonly refers to the “paid service students used to supplement their learning of academic subjects at school outside school hours” (Yung, 2019). Around the world, English language is one of the most popularly enrolled subjects in private tutoring, including both English as a first language and English as an additional language (EAL). Despite its popularity and implications for theories, practices, and policies, research on English private tutoring is still in its infancy. This book aims to provide an international perspective on the interface between applied linguistics and comparative education and open up an agenda for discussion in theories, practices, and policies in English language teaching (ELT). It will be of interest to students, scholars, and policy-makers in these and related areas.

Abstract

This book aims to expand the theoretical framework of and counter the Eurocentric narratives in language policy research, by comparing policies of EU and India and demonstrating the importance of taking a comparative perspective while studying language policies. This book challenges the notion of macro-level power in language policy research and offers evidence that, in democratic frameworks, macro-level power is not absolute. It is not uniform across policy domains, but rather susceptible to pressure, especially in the domains of healthcare and social welfare. This book makes three important contributions to the theory of language policy by: Arguing for the need to reconceptualise macro-level power Proposing ‘Categories of Differentiation’ as a new analytical tool for policy research Demonstrating that socio-political changes are reflected at the textual level This book is of interest to researchers working on language policies and those investigating language related legislation across different policy domains, to practitioners and policymakers in language policy, as well as to graduate students conducting comparative policy research. “This is a much valued and timely book making a strong case for the subject of language policy across Europe and India. The large comparative case studies of four distinctive states across Europe and India in a simple descriptive mode makes the reading of this book enjoyable. The domains of administration, legislation, healthcare and social welfare are undoubtedly novel ways to deal within the concept of language policy in a wider sense. The author uses discourse analysis to bring out the relationship between intention, explanation and interpretation of a phenomenon like language policy and its implementation. The social diversity as expressed in linguistic mapping is well captured in the novel idea of “categories of differentiation” both as a normative methodological tool and its historical-empirical manifestation.” — Asha Sarangi, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi.

Abstract

Els Witte en Harry Van Velthoven slagen er in "Strijden om taal" als geen ander in om de complexe evolutie te schetsen van een unitair en Franstalig België naar een federaal land met machtige deelstaten. Ze brengen een overzicht van hoe taal en politiek elkaar beïnvloedden en hoe taal tot op vandaag de politiek beheerst. Ze staan stil bij de ontwikkeling en de rol van de Vlaamse Beweging - oorspronkelijk enkel een taal- en cultuurbeweging - de uitstraling van het Frans, territorialiteits- versus personaliteitsbeginsel, de complexe evolutie van de taalwetgeving in het land. In "Strijden om taal" wordt alles ook vanuit een internationaal perspectief bekeken. Els Witte en Harry Van Velthoven doen immers ook een poging om de sociaalpolitieke en culturele verhoudingen binnen België te vergelijken met algemene taalpolitieke strategieën, zoals die elders in de wereld worden uitgevoerd.
