Abstract:

This book examines racism and racialized discourses in the ELT profession in
South Korea. The book is informed by a number of different critical approaches
to race and discourse, and the discussions contained in the chapters offer one
way of exploring how the ELT profession can be understood from such
perspectives. Observations made are based on the understanding that racism
should not be viewed as individual acts of discrimination, but rather as a
system of social structures. While the book is principally concerned with
language teaching and learning in South Korea, the findings are situated in a
wider discussion of race and ethnicity in the global ELT profession. The book
makes the following argument: White normativity is an ideological commitment
and a form of racialized discourse that comes from the social actions of those
involved in the ELT profession; this normative model or ideal standard
constructs a system of racial discrimination that is founded on White
privilege, saviorism and neoliberalism. Drawing on a wide range of data
sources, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in critically
examining ELT.
