This book addresses the issue of how to teach English in diverse international locations. Central to this discussion is the balance of power in classroom and curricular settings, the relationship between language, culture, and discourse, and the change in the ownership of English. This book is about the worlds and conflicts of TESOL teachers and researchers whose professional lives are both enriched and problematized by the cultural and political interfaces created by working with an international language.
