Routledge Academic Discourse and Global Publishing - Routledge

Academic Discourse and Global Publishing offers a coherent argument for changes in published academic writing over the past 50 years. This Routledge book demonstrates how published writing represents academics' decisions about presenting their work, readers, and themselves within the global context of a rapidly shifting university system. The work provides an up-to-date reference on contemporary topics in specialist discourse analysis, current research methodologies, and innovative approaches to the study of writing. It delivers new insights into conceptual and theoretical issues related to the analysis of academic communication, making it essential reading for scholars, researchers, and students interested in understanding how disciplinary persuasion shapes academic publishing in changing times.
