The Duck Who Flew Upside Down

'This book is an eye-opener for all sociolinguists interested in understanding how nation-states respond to and 'do' globalisation through language education policies. This is not a book about China, in other words. Or at least it is less about China than about how globalised institutional spaces such as schools are "key sites for the exploration of links between processes of economic transformation, changes in the organisation of a given community, and discursive practices through which that community reconstitutes itself" (p.9). It unquestionably invites us to include other Eastern schools in our understanding of these processes. But it also exhorts us to explore if and how, and with what results, Western nation-states, like China, pursue paths to political and economic modernisation that blend an increasing investment in language commodification and internationalisation with a more protective concern for linguistic and cultural heritage.' - Jürgen Jaspers, Université Libre de Bruxelles, Journal of Sociolinguistics
'The book is written in a lively narrative style employing real-life examples, especially in the description and analysis of choral practice. It constitutes a valuable addition to the current literature in the field of multilingualism and is suitable for post- graduate and PhD students of sociolinguistics and multilingual education as well as for professionals involved in educational reform and language planning.' - Li Jia, Macquarie University, Australia and Yunnan University, China, Multilingua.

This volume offers compelling confirmation of the coming of age of conceptual history which, although a branch of study that emanated from Europe, has now become truly transnational. The transfer, modification, and redescription of concepts—through the languages in which they are embedded—shape both vernacular and professional interpretations of social and political realities across cultures and through time. The editors are to be congratulated for assembling an excellent collection of essays that combine the theoretical roots of conceptual history with illuminating case-studies. It is an important and highly recommended introduction to the increasing variety and subtlety of the field.

A thorough and convincing argument that phenomenological hermeneutics can be fruitfully employed to unlock fundamental and intractable questions within religious education and education more broadly. Lucid and engaging, the text is both thoroughly readable and meticulously researched. Aldridge draws upon a range of sources, particularly Gadamer and Heidegger, to show that philosophical hermeneutics provides a comprehensive reflection on the nature of understanding itself, thereby furnishing us with a novel approach to understanding the peculiarly complex world of religious education. Aldridge demonstrates why religious educators need to address their subject through the lens of understanding as such. The implications, however, go well beyond curriculum issues within religious education, cutting across debates within education and religion more generally. This is an excellent book that contributes many fresh insights to a vital and timely debate.
