Inhaltsangabe

This volume draws together various strands of research and teaching related to language and economics.

The other papers develop McCloskey's ideas through the application of methods of discourse and genre analysis. Other contributions to the volume evaluate experiments in economics teaching at secondary and tertiary level to both non-native and native-speakers.
