“…Moreover, the intensification of population flows, the confluence of old and new mobilities and the advent of new communication technologies has seen the emergence of new religious practices, such as the virtual attendance of religious services and rituals (Rosowsky 2018b, Sawin 2018, Padharipande 2018 as well as the sharing of religious experiences through social networking sites, such as Facebook (Souza 2018), and on-line video sharing platforms (Peuronen 2017).

Internationalization (in general) and Englishization (in particular) are processes currently at work in a number of Brazilian universities. This article provides an account of ethnographic research into language policy processes unfolding in one federal university.

This documentary analysis is then accompanied by an interpretation of the perspectives of key social actors on how the policy has been implemented in their context. I conclude by highlighting the need for there to be wider engagement between senior management teams and university personnel on different scales relating to the development and implementation of internationalization plans.
