Analysing English in a Global Context offers a global perspective on the changing uses and forms of English and develops the skills needed to analyse these forms. It presents English language teaching in a variety of specific institutional, geographic, and cultural contexts.

This Reader addresses key contemporary issues in English language teaching and applied linguistics. The articles -- a range of classic and specially commissioned pieces -- have been carefully chosen and edited, and together they provide an overview of the rapid growth and spread of English in its many varieties worldwide. A general introduction outlines the approach, organization, and different perspectives of the collection.

Up-to-date and fully international, the Reader foregrounds some of the most challenging questions for future developments in English language teaching worldwide. Topics include: the internationalization of English; the status of the non-native English teacher; the recognition of language variation; the debate on standard versus non-standard varieties.
