Abstract:

This book investigates the cultural and intercultural aspects of English as a
Lingua Franca (ELF). Authors discuss how ‘culture’ and the ‘intercultural’ can
be understood, theorised and operationalised in ELF, and how the concepts can
be integrated into formats of ELF-oriented learning and teaching. The various
cultural connotations are also discussed (ideological, political, religious
and historical) and whether it is possible to use and/or teach a lingua franca
as if it were culturally neutral. The chapters consider the communication and
pedagogical implications of the cultural and intercultural dimensions of ELF
and offer suggestions for new directions in ELF research, pedagogy and
curriculum development.
