This book examines the negative effect of English on other cultures and languages. English (or any colonial language) is closely related to the spread of neoliberalism and neocolonialism. Therefore, radical pedagogy and human rights are recommended as achieavable aims so that the dominant status of English can be displaced. Therefore, new discourses should be developed to oppose the colonial, necolonial and neoliberal discourses regarding English. The mandatory state of English in Turkey needs to be displaced through the inclusion of radical pedagogy which opens up space for participatory democracy. The new task of the non-English-speaking countries is to ban the neoliberal expansion of English. A world without a lingua franca is possible and could produce emancipatory sociopolitical spaces to support super diversity.

Eser Ordem is a cultural study researcher and educationalist at Adana Alparslan Turkes Science and Technology University. He has published various articles on critical perspectives in cultures, humanities and linguistics. His studies focus on critical theory, cultural politics, radical pedagogy, language policies, human rights and cognitive linguistics.
