This edited book examines the phenomenon of English as a Lingua
Franca (ELF) in the Japanese context, using multilingualism as a
lens through which to explore language practices and attitudes in
what is traditionally viewed as a monolingual, monocultural
setting. The authors cover a broad spectrum of topics within this
theme, including language education policies, the nature of ELF
communication in both academic and business settings, users' and
learners' perceptions of ELF, and the pedagogy to foster
ELF-oriented attitudes. Teaching and learning practices are
reconsidered from ELF and multilingual perspectives, shifting the
focus from the conformity to native-speaker norms to ELF users'
creative use of multilingual resources. This book is a key resource
for advancing ELF study and research in Japan, and it will also be
of interest to students and scholars studying multilingualism and
World Englishes in other global contexts.
