Believing that the field of second-language phonology is positioned to advance a more holistic agenda that focuses on the context for language learning and use, specialists in acquiring a second language present new evidence and view points regarding the connection between accent and the individual learner's sense of self. They cover the nature of accent, the learner's approach to pronunciation in social context, the teacher's approach to accent, and the social impact of accent. Among the topics are the social nature of second-language pronunciation, second-language accent choices and language contact, training native speakers to listen to second-language speech, and accent "othering" in the workplace.
