Imagining Multilingual SchoolsEdited by Ofelia García, Tove Skutnabb-Kangas and

María E. Torres-Guzmán

This book lays bare the tensions and powerlines which emerge between participants in the volatile international ELT project market place. The book focuses on two international ELT projects and maps the prevailing interests in the field while seeking ways that providers and donors can more equally distribute linguistic, educational and economic resources.

This book brings together visions and realities of multilingual schools throughout the world to examine the pedagogical, socioeducational and sociopolitical issues that impact on their development and success. The book considers issues of multilingual schooling in different countries and for diverse populations and groups, while taking into account the global pressures of the 21st century.

English Language as Hydra argues that, far too often, the English language industry has become a swirling, beguiling monster, unashamedly intent on challenging local lingua-diversity and threatening individual identities. This book brings together the voices of linguists, literary figures and teaching professionals in a wide-ranging exposé of this enormous

Hydra in action on four continents.

Although the principles for enabling children to become fully proficient multilinguals through schooling are well known, most Indigenous and minority children are not provided with multilingual education, which would enable them to succeed both in school and in society. In this important book, experts from around the world show how multilingual education can be provided, and

what it can achieve.
