About This Book

How can we envisage a new language and culture pedagogy that breaks with the tradition of viewing language as part of a closed national universe of culture, history, people and mentality, and begins to see itself as a field operating in a complex and dynamic world characterised by transnational flows of people, commodities and ideas? Initially, to understand the field and its current challenges, we must understand its history, and the first part of this book contains a critical analysis of the history of the international field of culture teaching – the first historical treatment of this field ever written. The next part of the book focuses on how we can build a framework for a new transnational language and culture pedagogy that aims at the education of world citizens whose intercultural competence includes critical multilingual and multicultural awareness in a global perspective.

In

the

sense 

in

which 

the

word 

is

used 

in

pedagogical 

philosophy, 

where 

it

means 

an

emphasis 

on

a

moral 

development 

through 

intensive 

work

on

valuable 

cultural 

manifestations.

By

‘general’ 

and

‘particular’, 

Byram 

is

thinking 

of

the

two

levels 

within 

the

differential 

level: 

the

general 

and

the

specific, 

cf.

Chapter 

1

(personal 

commu-

nication, 

Nov. 

2001).

‘Warp’ 

and

‘weft’

are

technical 

terms 

from 

weaving 

(cf. 

Geertz’s 

metaphor:

web).

In

this 

quotation, 

Allen 

expresses 

an

untenable, 

autonomous 

conception 

of

grammar 

–

one

that

It

notice 

that 

there 

seems 

to

be

a

transition 

from 

‘people’

‘culture’

in

German 

culture 

pedagogy 

from 

the

1970s 

to

the

1980s 

(Kramer,

especially 

in

the

form 

of

a

replacement 

of

Völkerverständigung 

(cf. 

Erdmenger 

&

by

contexts 

which

‘interkulturell’
