This edited volume offers a series of state-of-the-art conceptual papers and empirical research studies which consider how contextual factors at multiple levels dynamically interact with individuals to influence how they go about the complex business of learning and using a second language.

Industry Reviews

'This pioneering collection of papers develops a range of descriptive and analytical approaches for understanding how language education is generated by the ecological interplay of contexts and language learners. The use of Complexity Theory as a frame makes this an inspiring and forward-looking contribution. The volume also connects to more established theoretical frames, thereby illustrating how the new science of complexity may expand the possibilities for research into the relationship between contexts and language learners. This makes the volume essential reading for students, professionals and researchers needing access to the 'cutting-edge' of scholarship in this area.'
