Reviews

The critical construction paradigm adopted by the authors is a very positive and exciting development in LIE-PP studies. I have every confidence that the volume will fulfill its promise to offer not only policy and practice critiques but also practical policy, pedagogy and curriculum alternatives. Professor Li Wei, PhD, Head, School of Education, Communication & Language Sciences, University of Newcastle upon Tyne, UK
