Holland, Robert – Language and Intercultural Communication, 2002
Suggests that the acrimony of debate on global English is partly explained by a top-down approach taken in much of the research on the topic. Proposes a text-based approach, aimed at examining the particular uses of English lexis in non-English contexts and with a view to observing how these relate to larger-scale issues. (Author/VWL)
