Abstract :
This symposium proposes a comparative analysis of foreign language education and research since 1945 in different European countries. In spite of efforts by the Council of Europe to pursue consensual language policies, divergences in language policy and research traditions have led to fragmentation of the field and often miscommunication. In France, for example, FL specialists work in la didactique des langues rather than applied linguistics, and the terms Fremdsprachendidaktik and Glottodydaktyka reveal the continued existence of national traditions arising from country-specific terminology and disciplinary cultures. The AILA ReN Crosslinguistic perspectives on L2 studies seeks to improve collaboration across scholarly communities by comparing terms and concepts in second and foreign language teaching across languages and research cultures, and this symposium explores the historical reasons for these differences, which have been little studied from a country-comparative perspective.
