This book examines the ‘English mania phenomenon’ and the
complex circumstances of adopting English Medium Instruction (EMI)
by South Asian education systems and the effect of an uneven
distribution of resources on the already under-resourced countries
in the region. Chapters explore linguistic, social, and economic
injustices by using an analytic-critical approach to examinations
of the place, role, provisions, and practices of EMI in specific
English language teaching (ELT) contexts. The book consequently
advocates for the wholescale reform of a system, which, the authors
argue, is unjust. Ultimately, the book explores socio-cultural,
poststructuralist, and English linguistic imperialism theories to
contribute a South Asian perspective on the controversy surrounding
EMI and examine its role within a wider global discourse on equity
and social justice. Critically examining the spread of English in
South Asia, this book will be of relevance to researchers,
scholars, and postgraduate students in applied linguistics,
language education, TESOL, and sociolinguistics.
This directory is the first ever compilation of bibliographic data
of research in English language education (ELE) from over 80
universities of India in the last 30 years. It covers particularly
the theses and dissertations in ELE in Indian universities. The
data consists of over a thousand entries, which can be searched in
various ways - by keywords, levels of learners, geographical areas,
universities or authors. In most cases, links are also provided to
locate particular works in the libraries of respective
universities. The book will be useful to those interested in
studying the developments in English language education in India
and those who wish to undertake research in ELE themselves.
