The book discusses recycled discourses of language and nationalism
in Finnish higher education, demonstrating the need to look beyond
language in the study of language policies of higher education. It
analyses the historical and political layeredness of language
policies as well as the intertwined nature of national and
international developments in understanding new nationalism.
Finnish higher education language policies were fuelled by the
dynamics and tensions between the national languages Finnish and
Swedish until the 2000s, when English begins to catalyse post
nationalist discourses of economy and competitiveness. In the
2010s, English begins to be seen as a threat to Finnish.
Educational, economic and epistemic nationalism emerge as the main
cycles of new nationalist language policies in Finnish higher
education. The book will be of interest to language policy and
higher education scholars and practitioners, as well as graduate
students language policy and higher education.
