I have heard about how hard academic writing is, for the average English speakers without university education or non - English speakers. In the article “The needless complexity of academic writing: A new movement Strives for Simplicity”. I agree with the author that on researches they use academic writing style. They live in their own world use very complicated terms and word to confuse the regular reader who needs the information. So it is true that there are problems in academic writing because it is traditional that only people involved at the same level of advanced education or in the same field as the writer will be able to understand. But sometime, I think the researchers or the writers who wrote or will write should have some kindness to other people, do not stick with the traditional too much. Because you wrote it to let people read, why would the writers not want to share their knowledge to average people who is interested in your article or research, what reason for excluding readers in different levels. So most of academic writing often use opaque style that is not easy to understand so if I am a reader I will choose the book that I read and it is easy and understandable to read. But of course sometime it is good when we write to government as in the article says they might need to have their secret language. I agree with the author that the research should be writing style that is transparent that everyone can understand.
Also the article gives an example of opaque writing in the paragraph begin with “the work of the text is to literalize the signifiers” which is impossible to understand for most people I am also the one that cannot understand. It is true that seem to be written to appear very intelligent but at the same time to confuse people about its meaning. So the problem is just there is a long tradition in academic writing to use this opaque writing style. I suppose Busley believes that it would be the advantage of everyone; academics, universities even the general public to go against tradition to use clearer and simple writing style is true, so that they may have to require additional laws.
