4.9/5 (15131 ratings)

Description:This volume explores the ambiguity of English as an academic lingua franca, focusing on the post-colonial university context in South Africa toward offering broader insights on ELF and EMI in the global South. The book adopts an intersectional approach to ethnicity and race, gender, and language which highlights the ways in which linguistic resources form identities in a multilingual ELF university context, one which raises critical questions around power, ideology, and identity. The volume also showcases the multiplicity and variability of Englishes in African academic contexts through its ethnographic accounts of South African universities, toward challenging long-held concepts underpinning existing ELF research, highlighting theory being done in the global South, and promoting strategies for English language learning and teaching that counteracts the marginalization of multilingual speakers. Offering a multidisciplinary critical contribution to the research on English as an academic lingua franca, this book will be of interest to students and researchers in linguistic anthropology, sociolinguistics, ELF and EMI studies, World Englishes, and African studies.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
