This book, likely the first of its kind in the English language, explores Chinese for specific and professional purposes (CSP) in terms of theorizing and developing practical applications for language teaching and learning. While research in language for specific purposes is thriving for languages such as English, there has been comparatively little such research conducted for Chinese. This volume attempts to fill the gap by bringing together practitioners from a broad international scholarly community, who share common interests yet diverse orientations. Seventeen papers are included, and address four broad thematic categories: (1) academic Chinese, (2) business Chinese, (3) Chinese for medicine and health care, and (4) Chinese for other broadly defined services and industries (diplomacy, tourism, wine-tasting, etc.). Representing the state of the art in CSP research, the book offers an indispensable guide for anyone interested in theoretical and practical issues in this area of applied Chinese language studies.

This volume presents a series of the most up-to-date studies on Chinese for Specific Purposes (CSP), an area that has been underrepresented in Language for Specific Purposes (LSP). Drawing from the insights and trends in mainstream theoretical and methodological LSP research, chapters in this volume explore novelties that CSP has developed to prepare Chinese for professional learners for the global economy. These encompass: needs analysis of less-surveyed high school Business Chinese or CSP academic writing classes developments on internationally oriented engineering and internship programs in China innovations in Chinese for business or legal materials development and review on textbook pragmatics studies on language arts and Chinese language use in specific or business settings technology-driven, project-based learning — or discipline-specific curriculum design. Robustly supported by studies and analysis on the global scale, this volume comprises contributions by professionals from universities across Asia and the United States, each with decades of expertise in LSP. These chapters offer critical insights necessary to help LSP researchers and educators rethink curricula and develop new initiatives for LSP. They may also serve as transferable operations that enhance the practice of LSP as a crucial component of second language education.

A crucial question for Chinese as a Second Language research is how to help elevate Chinese language teaching methodology to the level of other world language methodologies such as English, Spanish and German. This work goes in two directs. One explores how to apply research results achieved in Chinese linguistics to Chinese language teaching and the other is engaged in creating a strong applied linguistics research field that supports Chinese language teaching. CASLAR scholars are mainly involved in the latter one. This book is a representative sample of their research endeavors.

Treatment decision-making is a significant phase in outpatient interaction. Distinct formats of treatment recommendations may exert influences on both opportunities and consequences for patient participation in the process. Taking naturally occurring Chinese outpatient clinical conversations as the data and drawing from the analytic apparatuses provided by Conversation Analysis, this book represents an attempt to conduct a systematically descriptive and analytic study of the position and composition of treatment recommendations in doctor-patient interactions in Chinese outpatient clinics. By incorporating the analysis of epistemic and deontic orientations into the examination of particular linguistic resources employed to formulate the initiation, construction of, and responses to treatment recommendations, the study uncovers how Chinese doctors and patients steer the interactional trajectories of treatment decision-making through talk-in-interaction. The book can serve as a reference to the research on treatment decision-making in various kinds of Chinese medical settings. In addition, the insights from the study could provide a reference for understanding how Chinese doctors’ medical authority and patients’ agency are generally executed, challenged, and sustained via talk in the new era of patient-centered medical care.
