Description
Academic Writing for International Students of Business by Stephen Bailey provides valuable insights into the challenges faced by scholars worldwide in producing their work in English for scholarly publishing. Drawing from an eight-year study of fifty scholars, this book explores the impact of the growing dominance of English on academic writing globally. The authors examine the ways in which the global status attributed to English affects multilingual scholars working in contexts where English is not the official language of communication. This study sheds light on the politics surrounding academic publishing and highlights the need for effective strategies in navigating these complexities. This book will be of interest to postgraduates and professionals in the fields of World Englishes, language and globalization, and English Language Teaching, offering practical guidance on academic writing for international students of business.
