David Block and Deborah Cameron, University of London,
GLOBALIZATION AND LANGUAGE TEACHING

In this book, renowned linguists David Block and Deborah Cameron along
with a host of contributors contemplate the issues that globalization
raises for second language learning and teaching. This collection
shows how, in an economy based on services and information, the
linguistic skills of workers becomes increasingly important. New
technologies make possible new kinds of language teaching, and
language becomes an economic commodity, invaluable in the global
marketplace, creating implications for how and why people learn
language and which languages they learn. Drawing together the various
strands of the globalization debate, this rich and varied collection
of contributions explores issues such as the commodification of
language(s) and language skills; the use of new media and new
technologies in language learning and teaching; the effects of
globalization on the language teaching industry; new forms of power
and resistance.
