The tension between monolingualism and multilingualism has left its
mark on the cultural history of Europe. Current public and academic
debates about the Englishization of higher education pitch proponents of
the monolingual ideal of a common language that promotes communication
against advocates of the maintenance of linguistic diversity that does
more justice to the multicultural reality and enriches life. Notwithstanding
the differences between European countries, the switch from an initially
monolingual curriculum to a bilingual and sometimes multilingual curriculum
in higher education has led to debates about the consequences of
the Englishization for the quality of higher education, cultural identity,
inequality between stakeholders and the opportunities to express concern
about this process.
