Abstract

This Regular Issue was intended as a Special one on Academic Discourse in the Outer and Expanding Circles. It was preceded by papers on the same topic, but the Editorial Board of Arab Journal of Applied Linguistics chose not to delay their publication. I hope those authors who are engaged in preparing papers on the same topic will not be deterred from submitting their work to AJAL.
