Online seminar by Linus Salö (Stockholm University) ‘The sociolinguistics of English in Swedish academia’ - February 22, 5 p.m.
Published: Thursday, February 2, 2023
In this talk I will attempt a sociohistorical contextualization of English in Sweden,
so as to account for the traction it has gained in Swedish academia in recent
years. Focusing on the big sociolinguistic picture, this approach entails a
discussion on the rise of internationalism as a salient societal value as the
backdrop for grasping the position held by English in Swedish academia, more
generally.
