Intersectionality and the Discursive Construction of English Teacher Identities in Japan
Abstract
This book aims to disrupt the native-speaker/non-native-speaker binary through a study of the construction of English teacher identities in Japan. The book suggests that macro discourses in the Japanese context, as well as institutional processes, were powerful forces in perpetuating native-speakerist discourses and ascribing identity labels.
