Book excerpt: Post 9/11 military operations reinforce the reality that the Department of Defense needs a significantly improved organic capability in emerging languages and dialects, a greater competence and regional area skills in those languages and dialects, and a surge capability to rapidly expand its language capabilities on short notice. The Strategic Planning Guidance (SPG) for FY 2006-2011 directed the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness (USD (P & R)) to develop and provide to the Deputy Secretary of Defense (DepSecDef), a comprehensive roadmap for achieving the full range of language capabilities necessary to support the 2004 Defense Strategy. The SPG established four goals for language transformation: 1. Create foundational language and cultural expertise in the officer, civilian, and enlisted ranks for both Active and Reserve Components. 2. Create the capacity to surge language and cultural resources beyond these foundational and in-house capabilities. 3. Establish a cadre of language specialists possessing a level 3/3/3 ability (reading/listening/speaking ability). 4. Establish a process to track the accession, separation and promotion rates of language professionals and Foreign Area Officers (FAOs).

Book excerpt: After a year-long series of studies, DOD issued its Defense Language Transformation Roadmap in March 2005. It acknowledges the lack of language and cultural ability within the uniformed services, highlights the increasing need for such capabilities, and outlines several goals for language transformation. Among them, it requires all junior officers to complete language training, to actively recruit heritage speakers, and to incorporate "regional area content" in all Professional Military Education courses. Further, in a move reminiscent of the Goldwater-Nichols Act, it mandates foreign language "ability" as a criterion for "general officer/flag officer advancement." Additionally, the newly established Defense Language Office recommends that all officers, with few exceptions, have "a level of language proficiency."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Shaping Language Policy in the U.S.: The Role of Composition Studies, author Scott Wible explores the significance and application of two of the Conference on College Composition and Communication’s key language policy statements: the 1974 Students’ Right to Their Own Language resolution and the 1988 National Language Policy. Wible draws from a wealth of previously unavailable archived material and professional literature to offer for the first time a comprehensive examination of these policies and their legacies that continue to shape the worlds of rhetoric, politics, and composition. Wible demonstrates the continued relevance of the CCCC’s policies, particularly their role in influencing the recent, post-9/11 emergence of a national security language policy. He discusses in depth the role the CCCC’s language policy statements can play in shaping the U.S. government’s growing awareness of the importance of foreign language education, and he offers practical discussions of the policies’ pedagogical, professional, and political implications for rhetoric and composition scholars who engage contemporary debates about the politics of linguistic diversity and language arts education in the United States. Shaping Language Policy in the U.S. reveals the numerous ways in which the CCCC language policies have usefully informed educators’ professional practices and public service and investigates how these policies can continue to guide scholars and teachers in the future.
