In this lecture, Professor Sharifian presents an overview of the 
paradigm of English as an International Language (EIL). Starting with a 
brief historical account of the development of the paradigm and a 
demographic account of the spread and the use of the English 
language around the globe, he elaborates on the themes that have 
emerged as the key topics within the field. These include 
renationalization of English, use of English as a lingua franca, politics 
of EIL, identity and EIL, attitude towards EIL, ownership of English, 
teaching EIL, proficiency in EIL, and native-speakerism. At the end of 
the lecture, Professor Kirkpatrick will present a commentary on the EIL 
Lecture.
