A Review of Linguistic Policies Related to the Teaching of English From Colonial Times to Present Times in Argentina.

Abstract

The study of the evolution of linguistic policies along the course of history helps us understand the underlying motivations of the decisions taken, and bring light into possible solutions to current problems. In Latin America in general and in Argentina in particular, the development of the ability to communicate in English in scientific studies- Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics - is little realized during the years at university. In this work, we present a brief journey through the history of linguistic policies in terms of the teaching of second languages in Argentina from colonial times to present times in pursue of understanding this low degree of realization.
