Abstract:

Language, Culture and Identity in Applied Linguistics is a collection ofpapers from the BAAL Annual Conference at the University of Bristol 2005.The thirteen papers, by researchers from Britain and across Europe,represent a range of research orientations within Applied Linguistics whichconnect in different ways with issues in culture and identity. Two plenaryaddresses from the conference, by Roz Ivanič and Srikant Sarangi, explorethe themes of identity and culture in contexts of learning and of work.Papers addressing language planning and policy issues present recentanalyses of francophone identity in Canada and Sami identity in Finland.The issues of culture and identity in writing are explored in differentpapers from the perspective of identity construction in academic writing,discipline cultures in higher education contexts, the consequences of thesefor interdisciplinary writers, and how writers construct audience identitythough the linguistic choices they make. Empirical studies of languagelearning and teaching are also represented, with papers on ProcessingInstruction and Intercultural Pragmatics. The themes of identity andculture in these papers connect a range of sub-disciplines within AppliedLinguistics, and also connect knowledge building in Applied Linguisticswith pervasive themes in research across the social sciences, into the wayspeople as individuals and in communities understand, shape and representtheir experiences of learning and work.
