ELT education, as a commodity, takes many forms in countries all
over the world. This book questions how the benefits of
international English language education projects are distributed.
The critical issues of language rights and linguistic diversity are
pivotal in the book's examination of domination and subordination
in international language education projects. The author's
description of the role and teaching of English is based on her
experience of working in ELT aid and development and fee-based
projects, and through it she unmasks the interests and intentions
of aid and fee-based language education projects. The two case
studies that form the basis of this book recount a version of ELT
marketing and project implementation that will resonate with
experiences of aid recipients and university-led private sector
fee-payers in many different ELT contexts.
