Abstract:

Twenty years after Edgar W. Schneider’s publication of the Dynamic
Model, the field of World Englishes is as vibrant as ever. The further
spread and entrenchment of English around the world as a result of
globalisation but also localisation tendencies and, in particular, the
spread of the language and its multiple varieties through the new
media, has led to even further dispersion and contact scenarios, many
of which challenge early conceptualisations of the World Englishes
paradigm. This volume is dedicated to new perspectives, approaches,
and developments in the field, how they fit in with earlier research
in the paradigm, how they can be conceptualised, and which challenges
they bring along. In addition, the collection showcases some of the
methodological diversity in and the transdisciplinary nature of modern
World Englishes research.
