Abstract:

This book begins with the idea that English in the multilingual
university is filled with and surrounded by tensions, from the
renegotiation and bending of language norms to the emotional strain of
the increasing use of English. It explores how these tensions are
experienced by those who find themselves in multilingual university
settings outside the anglophone world and use English in their
research or education. The author examines the use of English in
multiple domains in Swedish universities, progressing from macro
perspectives on language policies to in-depth qualitative studies of
individuals. The book presents both a synthesis of recent scholarship
on the use of language in multilingual universities and the author’s
own empirical findings, which are situated in a theoretical framework
based on the work of Mikhail Bakhtin. The book offers the reader a
novel way of tracing the links between language perceptions and
practices on the ground, and the forces and processes which govern
these practices.
