Decentring Intercultural Competence Frameworks in the Ecological Turn
This paper considers the possibilities for re-thinking current intercultural communication frameworks for human-more than human relationships. Drawing on stories of nature-connection for wellbeing gathered from several diverse communities in a multicultural region of the UK, the article uses ethnographically-informed mediated discourse analysis to reflect on how we can learn from these stories a) as stories in themselves, b) in relation to the so…
Opening up spaces for researching multilingually in higher education
This paper considers the experiences of a PhD student researcher grappling with a highly complex project. We examine a number of issues relating to teaching in the multilingual university and question the powerful role of English in the PhD journey. We focus on the implications of relying on English academic resources, the problem of the predominance of English in research and publications, and the supervisee–supervisor relationships (including t…

In order to understand better the role of student mobility in practice, the article analyses responses to an inquiry about internationalisation to a group …

Within applied linguistics cultural categorisation is hard to avoid; the large number of cross-cultural studies of languages and language use bear witness to this. Categorisation itself is a necessary part of human activity; without it, communication of meaning would become impossible. This artic…
