Sumario:The adoption of English as the language of study and scholarship is becoming increasingly common among universities across Asia. But does this adoption of the English language not also mean the adoption of Western approaches to scholarship and knowledge?

[Andy Kirkpatrick, Professor in Linguistics, Griffith University].
