This book takes a critical look at why issues of language in higher education are routinely marginalised, despite the growing internationalisation of universities. Through analyses of a variety of intercultural encounters, the book highlights the range of interpretative possibilities available for understanding these encounters, and suggests the role that the reality of the contemporary intercultural dynamic between the Socratic and Confucian pedagogic traditions can play in driving change to the pedagogic practices of higher education. Another important aim of the book is to examine language in the academy as an object of cultural theory. While rooted in the practical and empirical reality of teaching and using language in higher education, this book argues for the importance of examining the institutional interface between language and higher education, and of critically exploring the values inscribed in the pedagogy and evaluation of academic language.

Arvustused

This is a stimulating and timely book which puts language as 'cultural object' at the heart of debates about the nature and purpose of higher education in the twenty first century. Drawing on extensive scholarship and many years of teaching in UK higher education, Joan Turner turns our gaze towards the taken-for-granted assumptions about language in the academy, not least in the contemporary context of intercultural communication, and calls for greater reflexivity about the practices in which we- as scholars, teachers and students- engage. This book will promote much needed discussion about assumptions and ideologies surrounding language use in the academy. -- Theresa Lillis, The Open University, UK This transformative treatment of the complex factors affecting language in higher education is an essential contribution to the growing field of intercultural and transnational communication. Resisting deficit discourses about students language and entrenched language vs. content dichotomies, it provokes critical reflection on the role of longstanding invisible occidental assumptions and worldviews about language that permeate our assessments, pedagogy, and teaching. Drawing brilliantly from both classic and contemporary theory, Turner reinscribes language into the complex process of knowledge-making in the daily intercultural exchanges that are the mainstream of todays shifting university language interactions. -- Christiane Donahue, Dartmouth College, USA Given the rapid growth in numbers of South-East Asian students in universities in New Zealand, the examination of assumptions about university language which Turners book offers is very valuable. It is likely to be of interest to writing teachers and EAP practitioners as well as tertiary teachers of international students more generally. The book provides a fascinating discussion of the nature of modern academic language. -- Christine Biebricher, The University of Auckland, New Zealand Studies * Applied Linguistics, Volume 18 (1) 2012 *
