English is often viewed as the <I><SPAN style="FONT-STYLE: italic">lingua franca</SPAN></I> of scholarly publishing in many disciplines, particularly in the sciences and social sciences. The rise of English as the presumed global medium of scholarly publication has resulted in both obvious and less obvious consequences for individual scholars and for the enterprise of knowledge production. We invite empirical and theoretical papers that examine the effects and enactments of these policies and explore the consequences for knowledge making globally.</SPAN></FONT></DIV></DIV>
