Klappentext zu „Using English as a Lingua Franca in Education in Europe “
This volume examines the role of English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) in education in Europe. Following the implementation of the Bologna process, English has assumed a central role in European education offering institutions the opportunity to cater to the needs of an internationalized student body and increase their competitiveness. On the other hand, the increased use of ELF has become an issue of concern, often perceived as a threat to other languages, tilting the scale towards linguistic inequality and stressing the urgent need for the development of new language policies. Both aspects of ELF are at the center of discussion in the proposed volume, which consists of a variety of papers examining ELF in different parts of Europe (Eastern, Central and Western) and different levels of education. The volume makes a substantial contribution to the lively and controversial debate about what is recognized as a central topical concern of language education policy in Europe and beyond.

Pressezitat
"[...] the publication lends enormous insight into the range of methods that could be applied in ELF studies, and the rich findings that emerge as a result. The strength of this publication lies in the breadth of the studies undertaken, not only geographically, but also in terms of the settings examined, particularly in Part Three. It thus provides a holistic view of ELF use in Eastern Europe, and thus is especially useful for language policy makers, particularly in education, as well as those interested in the changing role of English in expanding circle contexts."Guyanne Wilson in: LiguistList (15.01.2019), https://linguistlist.org/issues/30/30-1212.html
