Abstract:

This volume provides a fascinating glimpse into the complex language ecologies
of Southeast Asia. Adopting a relational perspective, it considers their
significance for the region, its peoples, the policy and practice of language
teaching, learning and assessment and the fate of local languages. It gives
particular prominence to the relationship between English and Chinese, its
likely transformation at a time of significant global change and the impact
that these two languages and their synergy will have on the place of other
languages and dialects. Dynamic Ecologies: A Relational Perspective on
Languages Education in the Asia-Pacific Region draws on the research and
insights of key scholars in the field and provides case studies that
illustrate the impact of relevant language policy in countries including
Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, South Korea and Australia.
