Richard B. Baldauf, Jr. (hereafter, Dick) and I met for the first time in September 1983 at a conference on linguistic modernization and language planning in Chinese-speaking communities, convened
Putting resources into practice
English has been deemed the most successful language ever, having more than a billion speakers internationally. English will probably maintain and grow its dominance, moving from being ‘a marker of
Multilingualism vs. monolingualism
Language policy is a mechanism determining the uses of language generally; here it examines the role of the English language in the emerging USA. Inspired by Spanish riches deriving from the ‘New World’ during the sixteenth century, the first English people to settle permanently in North America hoped for similar riches. In North America, the norm of language usage in the colonies remained that of the motherland until approximately the time of th…

Why educational language plans sometimes fail
Language-in-education policy (decision taking) and planning (decision implementation) are complex processes requiring a number of decisions to be taken and implemented if they are to be successful. While there is research that suggests the factors that lead to successful outcomes, these are often either ignored or too difficult for polities to implement, given their resources. This insufficiency can lead to a waste of resources and a failure to m…
Success or failure of primary second/foreign language programmes in Asia
Primary school second/foreign language (SL/FL) programmes in Asia, as well as in other parts of the world, are becoming more common, with many targeting English as the SL or FL. The pressures for such English language programmes come from top-down notions that in a globalised world English is required for societies to be competitive, especially with Asian neighbours, and bottom-up pressures from parents who see English as the key to educational s…

Language planning and its problems
There is a growing tendency in Asia, as well as elsewhere in the world, for English as a foreign/second language (EFL/ESL) programs to be implemented in the early years of primary schooling. Vigoro

Discourse Analysis and Applied Linguistics
Discourse analysis and applied linguistics is the essence of this article. Since their initial convergence in the 1970s, the relationship of discourse analysis and applied linguistics has been a fluid and multifaceted one, driven by a variety of theoretical perspectives across an increasingly diverse range of contexts. From its initial-and still largely central-focus on second language learning, applied linguistics is now more widely seen as rele…

Language policy spread
Except for a few large scale projects, language planners have tended to talk and argue among themselves rather than to see language policy development as an inherently political process. A comparison with a social policy example, taken from the United States, suggests that it is important to understand the problem and to develop solutions in the context of the political process, as this is where decisions will ultimately be made

The hegemony of English in science and technology
It is clear that English exercises a powerful hegemony in certain transnational domains, including (but not limited to) the international register of science and technology. There are a number of complex issues created by that hegemony of English. Both proximate and distal causes underlying the hegemony of English are briefly explored. A research project (conducted with the cooperation of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences) based on a questionnair…
Contrastive Rhetoric and the Teaching of Composition
The text of my sermon for today is drawn from a cartoon which appeared in the Publishers Newspaper Syndicate Sunday comics Grin and Bear It on February 2 of this year. The cartoon depicts an archeologist studying a stone covered with pictographs. Behind him are a fellow archeologist (both have bushy white mustaches, pith helmets, khaki shorts) and an Arab-looking individual. In the far distance one can see sand and a truck labeled Archeological E…

The Pacific Rim is more than just numerous geographical chunks: it is a series of polities and islands covering nearly half of the surface of the earth and representing almost half of the world's population. While this area is too diverse and complex to discuss all at once, there are two linguistic threads which wind around the region and serve as unifying links: Chinese and English. English is the language of wider communication in this century.…
