Synopsis
The teaching of English in the Expanding Circle, traditionally called EFL countries, has long been regarded as having no choice but to follow Inner Circle or Anglo-American norms, both in pedagogy and language models. This situation is in sharp contrast with that of the Outer Circle, or ESL countries, where the WE (World Englishes) paradigm, coupled with post-colonialism, has liberated the users of indigenous Englishes from the norms of Anglophone native speakers. Employing. Japan as a primary sample, this book proposes a new paradigm of EIL (English as an International Language) education, by integrating relevant paradigms such as WE and ELF (English as a Lingua Franca), which enables users of English from the Expanding Circle to represent their own voices in international communication.. Various examples of actual classroom practice in EIL are also presented, bridging the longstanding gap between theory and practice in this field.

"This book is a valuable addition to the ongoing discussion on teaching EIL and is a must read for all scholars and practitioners of EIL education" -Aya Matsuda, Arizona State University, From World Englishes, 38(4), 687-689. DOI: 10.1111/weng.12441

"The field has been slow to supplement theory with concrete ideas. This volume on Japan by Hino, however, is the most thoroughly fleshed-out effort to give clear suggestions to practitioners." - James F. D'Angelo, Chukyo University, From Asian Studies Review DOI: 10.1080/10357823.2019.1673927
