Global perspectives on linguacultural variation in academic publishing
Diane Belcher | Georgia State University
Hae Sung Yang | Georgia State University
This primarily interview-based study explores the perspectives
of published applied linguists around the world on what has facilitated their
success in reaching multiple readerships. The focus, more specifically, is on
scholars in non-English-dominant settings, a number of whom have made a
commitment to both inter- and intranational academic publication, and their
perceptions of intercultural rhetoric issues salient in various linguacultural
contexts. The findings indicated that such scholars were divided in their views
on whether or not there are considerable differences in the rhetorical
expectations of international Anglophone and more region-specific, or
intranational, journal audiences. What this study’s participants shared was an
appreciation of the complexities of authorial cross-contextual negotiation of
multiple research worlds, only some of which are Anglophone.
Keywords: bilingual publishing, dual publication agendas, intercultural rhetoric, linguacultural variation
