Linguistic Imperialism and EFL Textbooks: The Case of American English File
Öz
The purpose of the present study was to examine the extent to which the outer and the expanding circle varieties of English have been taken into consideration in the widely-used English language teaching series American English File. To this end, the frequencies of the listening tracks including non-native varieties were compared with the tracks not including them through two measures of percentage and ratio. Our analyses demonstrated a trace of linguistic imperialism across all the levels of this series. The amount of exposure turned out to be seriously unsubstantial and ineffective indeed; in addition, the quality of this exposure was not very satisfactory due to the artificiality of the utterances spoken by the non-native speakers in the audio recordings. This suggests that English language teachers be more cautious about the hidden ideologies of the textbooks they expose their learners to.
