- Extends traditional conceptions of bilingualism and bilingual education to include global and local concerns in the 21st century
- Questions assumptions regarding language, bilingualism and bilingual education, and proposes a new theoretical framework and alternative views of teaching and assessment practices
- Reviews international bilingual education policies, with separate chapters dedicated to US and EU language policy in education
- Gives reasons why bilingual education is good for all children throughout the world, and presents cases of how this is being carried out
