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.
