Call for Papers on Participating in Academic Publishing: Consequences of 
Linguistic Policies and Practices
 
Language Policy is planning a thematic issue on how policies at local, national, 
and transnational levels are enacting and enforcing the high status of English 
academic publishing and the impact of such policies on scholars and students, 
research and teaching, and institutional practices in different geographical 
contexts. English is often viewed as the lingua franca 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.
 
Deadline for abstracts: April 15, 2011
 
For consideration for this issue, please send an abstract of up to 300 words to 
Mary Jane Curry (mjcurry at warner.rochester.edu), who will co-edit the issue with 
Theresa Lillis. For empirical papers, the abstract should identify the geolinguistic 
context of the research, the research question/focus, the theoretical framing, 
and a synopsis of findings. For theoretical papers, the abstract should describe 
the issue under consideration, the theoretical framing, and the conclusions to be 
drawn. If the abstract is accepted, you will be invited to submit a paper due 
January 1, 2012, which will undergo normal peer review procedures. The issue is 
scheduled for publication in early 2013. Language Policy is a peer-reviewed 
journal included in the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) database. For more 
information on the journal, please see:
