Description:
A collection of original papers on the subject of language problems as they relate to educational issues in Australia, South East Asia and the South Pacific. These are nations where language has been a key terrain for both colonial imposition and indigenous dissent. Imported languages and educational systems have been developed for economic and political purposes, often resulting in the eradication of local languages and the emergence of pidgins and creoles. Hence language has become a point of dispute within politics and economics. This volume examines the problems facing governments, language planners, language consultants and educators. It should be of value to those interested in the politics, language and culture of these areas.
