12th Article : English as a meaning-making resource in Russian-based professional communication


From the results of the globalization of English has become an integral part of contemporary Russia. The indexical potential of English is rooted in language ideologies circulating in contemporary Russia. Like in other countries of Expanding and Outer Circles, English in Russia indexes internationalization, progress, innovation, success, reliability, business efficiency, and high quality of life. This study showed that in the work-related contexts English connotes academic excellence and professional competence. It also serves as a powerful instrument of identity construction promoting neoliberal ideology and market values in Russian society.
