Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper reviews the ongoing engagement of neoliberal ideology in Indonesian higher education institutions and in commodifying the global spread of English. With the growing number of faith-based higher education institutions in Indonesia, the neoliberal and English ideologies are contested and promulgated, creating ambivalent spaces. This complex entanglement of ideologies begs us to examine how they are appropriated by English teachers who are at the front line in translating the ideologies. In this respect, I argue that Bakhtin’s construct of ideological becoming (Bakhtin, 1981. The Dialogic Imagination. Transalted by Caryl Emerson and Michael Holquist. Austin, TX: University of Texas Press) has explanatory power that may help understand teachers’ ideological formation.
