Language regulation has often been approached from a top-down policy perspective, whereas this book examines regulatory practices employed by speakers in interaction. With its ethnographically informed focus on language regulation in academic English as a lingua franca (ELF), the book is a timely contribution to debates about what counts as acceptable English in ELF contexts, who can act as language expert, and when regulation is needed.

This edited book examines language perceptions and practices in multilingual university contexts in light of recent theoretical developments questioning the conceptualization of language as a static entity, drawing on case studies from different Northern European contexts in order to explore the effects of phenomena including internationalization, widening participation, and migration patterns on language attitudes and ideologies. The book provides cutting-edge perspectives on language uses in Northern European universities by drawing attention to the multiplicity of language practices alongside the prominence of English in international study programmes and research publication. It will be of interest to students and scholars of multilingualism, sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, and education, as well as language policymakers. Maria Kuteeva is Professor of English Linguistics in the Department of English at Stockholm University, Sweden. Kathrin Kaufhold is Assistant Professor of Applied Linguistics in the Department of English at Stockholm University, Sweden. Niina Hynninen is Senior Lecturer in Applied Linguistics in the Department of Languages at the University of Helsinki, Finland. .
