In this book, leading scholars in the field of World Englishes (WE)
offer fresh perspectives in re-thinking issues on the use of
English as a global language in an interconnected world.
Established as a legitimate field of study, WE offers a conceptual
framework which has influenced scholarship in many related
disciplines: contact linguistics, postcolonial Englishes, English
as a lingua franca, English as an international language, and
applied linguistics. This seminal volume will have an excellent
balance between theoretical and empirical works focusing on
scholarship that has arisen in relation to the Kachruvian Three
Concentric Circles model. This book covers topics such as
state-of-the-art review of WE, WE and contact linguistics,
post-colonial Englishes, English as a Lingua Franca, English as an
International Language, WE and applied linguistics, language
measurement and testing in WE, language policy and management,
language education and dynamic ecologies, language typology, WE as
a new canon, WE and corpus linguistics, WE and multimodalities, and
makes predictions about the future of WE. It contains a
comprehensive and up-to-date bibliography of major works published
in the field.
