Michael Byram

Karen Risager

Rather than the usual technical problems of teaching a foreign language that are only politely discussed within specialized gatherings well advertised as such, Byram (education, U. of Durham, England) and Risager (language teaching, Roskilde U., Denmark) show that foreign language teaching has a strong political character and responds to the social and political changes of the world. They take their own countries--and comparisons between them--as case studies of current changes. For example they ask language teachers about how increased mobility through Europe has affected their teaching. They do not provide an index. US distribution by Taylor and Francis.
