Abstract:

Presents a new way to categorize Englishes around the globe

*Brings together a range of distinguished researchers in the field of World
Englishes to evaluate the Extra- and Intra-Territorial Forces (EIF) Model

*Jointly examines postcolonial and non-postcolonial varieties of English which
have so far been treated separately

*Presents case studies analysing a range of varieties of English within the
World Englishes paradigm

This book brings together two types of varieties of English that have so far
been treated separately: postcolonial and non-postcolonial Englishes. It
examines these varieties of English against the backdrop of current World
Englishes theory, with a special focus on the extra- and Intra-Territorial
Forces (EIF) Model. Bringing together a range of distinguished researchers in
the field, each chapter tests the validity of this new model, analyses a
different variety of English and assesses it in relation to current models of
World Englishes. In doing so, the book ends the long-standing conceptual gap
between postcolonial and non-postcolonial Englishes and integrates these in a
unified framework of World Englishes.

Case studies examine English(es) in England, Namibia, the United Arab
Emirates, India, Singapore, the Philippines, South Korea, Japan, Australia,
North America, the Bahamans, Trinidad, Tristan da Cunha, St. Helena, Bermuda,
and the Falkland Islands, Ireland, Gibraltar and Ghana.
