Language and Culture Pedagogy - From a National to a Transnational Paradigm

This book presents a view of what it means to teach language and culture in a world characterised by transnational flows of people, commodities and ideas. It contains an analysis of the national tradition of culture teaching as an aspect of foreign language teaching and proposes a transnational framework for language and culture pedagogy.
