About the book:

This book brings together a range of scholars from 10 different countries
to address the contemporary state of play in national standard language
education – i.e. the L1 subjects. It seeks to understand the field from
within a comparative-historical and transnational frame. Four thematic
threads are woven through the volume: educationalisation; globalisation;
pluriculturalism; and technologization. The chapters range over various
aspects of L1 as a school subject: literature, language and literacy;
reading and writing; media and digital technology; the dialogue between
curriculum inquiry and *Didaktik* studies; the continuing relevance of
*Bildung*; the significance of history and nation; and new challenges of
culture and environment in the face of climate change. The book concludes
with a reflection on the prospects for L1 education today and tomorrow, in
a now thoroughly globalised context and, accordingly, deeply implicated in
a necessary new project of nation *re*-building.
