A couple of other references that are based on research and highlight
issues in the NS/NNS debate (although they retain the terms):
Arva, V. & Medgyes, P. 2000. Native and non-native teachers in the
classroom. System 28: 355-372
Milambiling, J. 2000. ‘How nonnative teachers fit into the equation’
TESOL Quarterly, 34, 2: 324-332.
Plus a book that people probably know about:
Davies, A, 2003. The native speaker: myth and reality. Multilingual
matters: Clevedon.
