This edited volume examines English-language policy and practice in higher education worldwide. It demonstrates how the use of English influences the internationalization of universities and the way subjects are taught and learned. It also questions whether internationalization through EMI truly achieves the values of global citizenship and inclusivity/diversity it strives for. Written by experts in the field, the book features research-based data from universities worldwide, with three chapters on Asia and the Far East (Malaysia, Japan, and China), four on Europe (Denmark, the Netherlands, and Italy), and one each on Africa (Ethiopia) and Central America (Mexico). Sources include policy documents, surveys, focus groups, and semi-structured interviews involving university policymakers, faculty, students, and administrators. This book will be of interest to students and scholars in the fields of language and education policy, internationalization and applied linguistics, in particular English-language education (EMI), academic English and English as a Lingua Franca (ELF).
