This volume offers comprehensive 'state-of-the-art' overviews of
educational policies concerning the teaching of English in a large
number of Asian countries. Each contribution is written by a
leading expert and gives a clear assessment of current policies and
future trends. Starting with a description of the English education
policies in the respective countries, the contributors then delve
into the 'nuts and bolts' of the English education policies and how
they play out in practice in the education system, in schools, in
the curriculum, and in teaching. Topics covered include the balance
between the acquisition of English and the national language,
political, cultural, economic and technical factors that strengthen
or weaken the learning of English.
