Jonathan R. White

Jonathan White was awarded his PhD from University College London for a thesis on generative syntax. He has since then moved on to research on computer-mediated communication, especially processes for economizing language and economization as a community-building strategy, and attitudes to English. His conclusions so far have been that it is the communities themselves that set their norms for language use, and that despite the Internet inexperience of the non-native speakers, they negotiated their own norms for reducing language separate from those manifested by the native speaker teachers.
