Review "Robert Phillipson has made, and continues to make, a major contribution to our understanding of the social construction of English as a ‘world language’ representing potent symbolic capital within the global cultural economy." Naz Rassool, University of Reading "[A] major contribution to critical sociolinguistics…. " Probal Dasgupta, Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata "… A fascinating work which manifests how humanistic values can be blended with erudition and analytical incisiveness to create the kind of scholarship which can transcend the mere description of reality our research methods enforce upon us." Tariq Rahman, Quaid-i-Azam University, Islamabad "Phillipson’s work is not only thought-provoking and ground-breaking, but it gets to the very heart of some of the key issues around the global dominance of English in the world. It provides a major contribution to our understanding of the role of English in the contemporary world." Peter Martin, University of East London   About the Author Robert Phillipson is Professor Emeritus, Copenhagen Business School, Department of International Language Studies and Computational Linguistics .
