Abstract:

The relative status of native and non-native speaker language teachers within
educational institutions has long been an issue worldwide but until recently,
the voices of teachers articulating their own concerns have been rare.
Existing work has tended to focus upon the position of non-native teachers and
their struggle against unfavourable comparisons with their native-speaker
counterparts. However, more recently, native-speaker language teachers have
also been placed in the academic spotlight as interest grows in language-based
forms of prejudice such as ‘native-speakerism’ – a dominant ideology prevalent
within the Japanese context of English language education. This innovative
volume explores wide-ranging issues related to native-speakerism as it
manifests itself in the Japanese and Italian educational contexts to show how
native-speaker teachers can also be the targets of multifarious forms of
prejudice and discrimination in the workplace.
