<p>Focusing on the Americas – home to 40 to 50 million Indigenous people
– this book explores the history and current state of Indigenous
language revitalization across this vast region. Complementary chapters
on the USA and Canada, and Latin America
and the Caribbean, offer a panoramic view while tracing nuanced
trajectories of "top down" (official) and "bottom up" (grass roots)
language planning and policy initiatives. Authored by leading Indigenous
and non-Indigenous scholars, the book is organized
around seven overarching themes: Policy and Politics; Processes of
Language Shift and Revitalization; The Home-School-Community Interface;
Local and Global Perspectives; Linguistic Human Rights; Revitalization
Programs and Impacts; New Domains for Indigenous
Languages. Providing a comprehensive, hemisphere-wide scholarly and
practical source, this singular collection simultaneously fills a gap in
the language revitalization literature and contributes to Indigenous
language revitalization efforts.
