political implications of the global spread of English. The study

language by examining colonial origins, connections to linguistics
and applied linguistics and relationships to the global spread of
teaching practices. It offers a new, critical approach, developing
an alternative understanding through the concept of the
"worldliness" of English and includes separate chapters on English
in Malaysia and Singapore. Readership: 3rd / 4th year undergraduate
and postgraduate students of education, English and applied
linguistics, for courses on teaching second languages, critical
pedagogy, comparative education and world Englishes. Also for
