Mihahome Revolution 2.0 - Englisch
The use of English is very much taken for granted in international communication today. But this dominance of English causes not only linguistic and communicative inequality, but also the feelings of anxiety and insecurity especially on the part of the non-English-speaking people. This hegemony of English creates and reproduces inequality, discrimination, colonization of the mind as well as Americanization, transnationalization, and commercialization of our contemporary life.
(Tsuda, Yukio (Nagoya University, Japan))
The pessimist complains about the wind;
The optimist expects it to change;
The realist adjusts the sails.
(William Arthur Ward)

ENGLISH around the world
The pessimist complains about the wind;
The optimist expects it to change;
The realist adjusts the sails.
