520 8  This volume brings together contributions that explore the
       increasingly important roles that English plays in Asia, 
       including its contribution to economic growth, national 
       imaginaries and creative writing. These are issues that 
       are political in a broad sense, but the diversity of Asian
       contexts also means that the social, political and 
       cultural ramifications of the spread of English into Asia 
       will have to be understood in relation to the challenges 
       facing specific societies. The chapters in the book 
       collectively illustrate this diversity by focusing on 
       countries from South Asia, Southeast Asia and the Asia 
       Pacific. Each country has two contributions devoted to it:
       one paper provides an overview of the country's language 
       policy and its positioning of English, and another 
       provides a critical discussion of creative expressions 
       involving the use of English. Taken together, the papers 
       in the volume detail the most recent developments 
       concerning the politics of English in Asia.
