Beschreibungen

<p>This book is the first longitudinal study that addresses language policy and planning in the context of a major international sporting event and examines the ideological, political, social, cultural, and economic effects of such context-specific policy initiatives on contemporary China. The book has important reference value for future research on language management at the supernational level and language services for linguistically complex events. At the same time, it presents some broader implications for current and future language policy makers, language educators and learners, particularly from non-English speaking backgrounds. </p>

<li>Bilingual and multilingual education </li>
<li>Language planning and language policy </li>
<li>Literacy skills </li>
<li>Second/foreign language pedagogy </li>
<li>Translation and interpretation </li>
<li>Language for specific purposes </li>
<li>Discourse analysis </li>
<li>Language testing and assessment </li>

<li>Pragmatics and rhetorics </li>
<li>Corpus analysis </li>
<li>Critical pedagogies </li>
<li>Research methodology in applied linguistics </li>
