Scholars who use English as an additional language confront challenges when disseminating their research in the global market of knowledge production dominated by English. English for Research Publication Purposes analyses the experiences and practices of these scholars across the globe and presents "critical plurilingual pedagogies" as a theoretically and empirically informed means of supporting them. This book: * Draws on an empirical study of a Latin American university's effort to mount a course that provides support to emerging and established scholars who use English as an additional language; * Brings theoretically informed discussions of critical pedagogies, plurilingualism and identity affirmation to better serve plurilingual scholars who seek to publish their research in English-language journals; * Provides examples of classroom activities that can be adapted and adopted to local contexts and realities in a curriculum based on critical plurilingual pedagogies; * Proposes future directions for research into the internationally urgent, growing concerns of global scholars who produce English-medium academic knowledge for the world stage. Incisive and cutting-edge, English for Research Publication Purposes will be key reading for academics and upper-level students working in the areas of ESP, EAP, ERPP, and Applied Linguistics.

Offering a nuanced examination of the complex landscape that international scholars who publish their research in English must navigate, this edited volume details 17 perspectives on scholarly writing for publication across seven geolinguistic regions. This innovative volume includes first-hand accounts and analyses written by local scholars and pedagogues living and working outside Anglophone centres of global knowledge production. The book provides an in-depth look into the deeply contextualized pedagogical activities that support English-language publishing. It also brings much-needed insight to discussions of policies and practices of global scholarly research writing. Bookended by the editors' introductory overview of this burgeoning field and an envoi by the eminent applied linguist John M. Swales, the diverse contributions in this volume will appeal to scholars who use English as an additional language, as well as to researchers, instructors, and policymakers involved in the production, support, and adjudication of global scholars' research writing.

This book provides a comprehensive review of the current knowledge on writing and publishing scientific research papers and the social contexts. It deals with both English and non-Anglophone science writers, and presents a global perspective and an international focus. The book collects and synthesizes research from a range of disciplines, including applied linguistics, the sociology of science, sociolinguistics, bibliometrics, composition studies, and science education. This multidisciplinary approach helps the reader gain a solid understanding of the subject.

SCIENTIFIC WRITING IN A SECOND LANGUAGE investigates and aims to alleviate the barriers to the publication of scientific research articles experienced by scientists who use English as a second language. David Ian Hanauer and Karen Englander provide a comprehensive meta-synthesis of what is currently known about the phenomenon of second language scientific publication and the ways in which this issue has been addressed. SCIENTIFIC WRITING IN A SECOND LANGUAGE reports new qualitative and quantitative research on the phenomenon and problems faced by second language scientists publishing in English. This data explicitly quantifies the burden of second language science writing. Hanauer and Englander also provide a framework of educational resources that facilitate informed, innovative approaches to alleviate the barrier of English literacy from publishing scientific knowledge by second language English writers. Scientific Writing in a Second Language provides a sophisticated analysis of the issues faced by publishing second language scientists and a synthesis of pedagogical options for enhancing the options scientists have to write and publish research articles in a second language. SCIENTIFIC WRITING IN A SECOND LANGUAGE is a central resource for professional scientists whose first language is not English and for those applied linguists, second language writing specialists, and compositionists who work with them. DAVID IAN HANAUER is Professor of English/Applied Linguistics at Indiana University of Pennsylvania and an educational researcher and the Assessment Coordinator of the Phage Hunters Integrating Research and Education Program situated in the Hatful Laboratory at the University of Pittsburgh. He is the author of six books, including Scientific Discourse: Multiliteracy in the Classroom, Poetry as Research and Active Assessment: Assessing Scientific Inquiry (with Graham Hatfull and Deborah Jacobs-Sera). His articles have been published in Science and a wide range of applied linguistics and educational journals. KAREN ENGLANDER, York University, Canada, is a long-time faculty member of the Universidad Autonoma de Baja California, Mexico, where she works with scientists and graduate students who seek to publish their research in English. She has published empirical research on the policy, linguistic, and identity issues implicated in writing and publishing scholarly work in English when the writer is not a native speaker of the language. She is co-editor of Discourses and Identities in Contexts of Educational Change, and her work has appeared in the Journal of Applied Linguistics, Discourse Studies, Journal of Language, Identity and Education, Journal of International Women's Studies, and Written Communication, among others.
