Abstract:

The status of LSP (Languages for Specialised Purposes) in the contemporary 
socio-cultural context is an ongoing central issue of scholarly debate. 
Specialised languages in the global village examines the impact of 
globalisation on intercultural communication within specialised communities 
of practice. The contributions of the volume provide linguistically and 
pedagogically-informed discussion on modes of communication practice in 
professional and institutional domains, frames of social action and the 
construction of professional identities. The contributors also address issues 
of languages and social entrepreneurship, and the acquisition and 
development of linguistic/cultural competence in foreign languages for 
specialised purposes. The edition is a valuable reading for researchers in 
LSP, specialists in the fields of discourse analysis, sociolinguistics and 
scholars in the area of rhetoric and composition. It is also of interest for 
professional translators, language editors and language advisors in the fields 
of specialised academic/professional communication. LSP instructors and 
foreign language teachers will also find informed guidelines and useful 
pedagogical proposals for classroom implementation.
