2. A. DISCUSSION
 English as the contemporary global lingua
franca
 English as the language of academe
 English as a hegemonic force
 Academic knowledge production: three
 empirical studies
 Future direction for empirical research
 Conclusion

3.  A lingua franca is an idiom that non-native
speakers can draw
 on in order to communicate with other non-
native speakers
 (Vandermeeren, 1999) or indeed with native
speakers of this
 language (Tietze, 2008b)

4. C. English as the language of academe
 There are significant pressures on scholars to publish
in
 English language journals (Curry & Lillis, 2004;
Ferguson,
 2007; Swales, 2004), and this is especially the case
for
 management scholars (Tietze, 2008a, 2008b)

5. D. ENGLISH AS A HEGEMONIC FORCE
 The above-mentioned writers point to English as having
 ‘hegemonic powers’. From this perspective, the use of
the
 English language is not ‘neutral’ or ‘objective’, rather
 assumptions about how to best order economic (as well
as
 the social and cultural) affairs are coded into its
syntactical
 structure and its semantic fields.

6. E. Academic knowledge production: three
empirical studies
 Curry and Lillis (2004) and Lillis and Curry
(2006a, 2006b)
 longitudinal study investigates the text production,
publication
 practices and experiences of scholars from
pedagogy and
 psychology.

7. F. FUTURE DIRECTION FOR EMPIRICAL
RESEARCH
 If we accept the thoughts and arguments
presented in this
 piece, it can be argued that English
language use is expressive
 and reflective of institutional practices,
which are underpinned
 by hegemonic processes and
assumptions.

8. G. Conclusion
 English is currently the most dominant medium and
channel
 through which business and management knowledge
is constituted
 and expressed. Yet its function and role in the
 generation of (management and business) knowledge
has
 remained unacknowledged and unchallenged.
