ELF and the alternatives (Kommentar): Comments on Ian MacKenzie’s “Topic & Comment” in JELF 2014; 3(2): 395–407

In his paper “ELF and the alternatives” Ian MacKenzie considers a number of options that are presently under discussion as possible alternatives to the use of
English as a Lingua Franca (ELF). Their scope includes translation (a short section of two paragraphs only), code switching, receptive multilingualism,
and Esperanto. It is the presentation of the latter approach that I want to address in this comment. As MacKenzie ’s bibliography contains two articles of mine and
as these seem to be important sources on which the author bases his argumentation, I suppose that I should react to his paper.
