Immunization of Didactics of National Languages in Central Europe
Dr. hab. prof. UP Marek Pieniążek

Abstract
This article proposes to analyze the basis of national educational policy in the context of postmodern culture. First, I would like to indicate the dependence of educational policy on the decisions of economists. My thesis is, that in the era of globalization the educational impact of national language should be protected. The aggressive dominance of English in the cultural space requires reform in teaching of national languages, especially in Slavic Europe. Therefore, I propose my own project of comparative research on education of national languages in Central Europe. The main thesis of the paper talks about the need for immunization of national educational discourses. One of the methodologies useful here, that can liberate the power of indigenous languages, is the poetically recognized theory of affordance (J.J. Gibson). Finally, I would like to invite you to create an international research consortium.
