Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. A very good copy just showing an indentation/split to the rear board, hence a non-text page is stamped damaged and so now for sale at a special bargain price. Despite such, this book is actually in very decent shape; appears unread and is a perfectly good reference copy. Artikel-Nr. 204741

Hardcover. Zustand: New. English as a global lingua franca interacts with other languages across a wide range of multilingual contexts. Combining insights from linguistics, education studies, and psychology, this book addresses the role of English within the current linguistic dynamics of globalization. It takes Singapore, Hong Kong, and Dubai as case studies to illustrate the use of English in different multilingual urban areas, arguing that these are places where competing historical assessments, and ideological conceptions of monolingualism and multilingualism, are being acted out most forcefully. It critically appraises the controversial concept of multilingual advantages, and studies multilingual cross-linguistic influence in relation to learning English in bilingual heritage contexts. It also scrutinises multilingual language policies in their impact on attitudes, identities, and investment into languages. Engaging and accessible, it is essential reading for academic researchers and advanced students of bi- and multilingualism, globalization, linguistic diversity, World Englishes, sociolinguistics, and second/third language acquisition. Examines multilingual development from the perspective of different disciplines Offers a truly global perspective on the acquisition and use of English Provides an overview of 100 years of multilingualism research.
