van Lier, Leo
International Journal of Applied Linguistics, v7 n1 p95-105 1997
Focuses on the tensions existing between theory and practice and between homogeneity and diversity in applied linguistics (AL). Argues that theory and practice need not be seen as separate activities, and that diversity is an inevitable, desirable consequence of the interdisciplinary nature of AL. (26 references) (Author/CK)
