I just came across this item in a search - but didn't notice that it had
been mentioned on this list. Apologies if it's an unnecessary duplication
(below is the LinguistList announcement, which came up in a search of my
email archives, and the TOC from the loc.gov site; unfortunately it hasn't
been processed yet in the LOC, however, so I'll have to find it elsewhere):

Abstract:

 

The volume has four parts: Part I (Language minorities and inequality)
analyses language contact and linguistic diversity as a global phenomenon,
Part II (Language planning and language change) focuses on colonialism,
imperialism and economics as factors that language policies and planning
measures must account for, Part III (Language variation and change in
institutional contexts) examines language-related problems in education,
religion, science and the Internet, and Part IV (The discourse of linguistic
diversity and language change) relates public discourses on language and
racism, sexism and political correctness to different ideological positions,
values and attitudes.
