Book synopsis

This book probes for a post-native-speakerist future and explores the nature of (English and Japanese) native-speakerism in the Japanese context, and possible grounds on which language teachers could be employed if native-speakerism is rejected (i.e., what are the language teachers of the future expected to do, and be, in practice). It reveals the problems presented by the native-speaker model in foreign-language education by exploring individual teacher-researcher narratives related to workplace experience and language-based inclusion/exclusion as well as and Japanese native-speakerism in the teaching of Japanese as a foreign language. It then seeks solutions to the problems by examining the concept of post-native-speakerism in relation to multilingual perspectives and globalisation generally, with a specific focus on English-language education.
