The book explores the implications of policy and practice through a critical sociological lens, offering a unique viewpoint on language education. This book is essential reading for scholars and students of language education and language policy. It will also appeal to policymakers, university administrators, and educators interested in the complexities of foreign language education in China and the broader implications for higher education systems worldwide.
