This volume investigates how generic, rhetorical and linguistic resources are creatively exploited by different Communities of Practice (CofP) in a range of professional, institutional and academic contexts to respond to different socio-cultural scenarios. In particular, it describes the language and structures specific to genres with a view to ascertaining whether homogenizing or fragmenting forces and trends have been brought about by the three waves of globalization which have swept the world since 1492 (Friedman, 2005).

Abstract

This volume investigates how generic, rhetorical and linguistic resources are creatively exploited by different Communities of Practice (CofP) in a range of professional, institutional and academic contexts to respond to different socio-cultural scenarios. In particular, it describes the language and structures specific to genres with a view to ascertaining whether homogenizing or fragmenting forces and trends have been brought about by the three waves of globalization which have swept the world since 1492 (Friedman, 2005).
