Abstract:

This book brings together current research by leading international scholars on 
the often contentious nature of language policies and their practical outcomes in 
North America, Australia and Europe. It presents a range of perspectives from 
which to engage with a variety of pressing issues raised by multilingualism, 
multiculturalism, immigration, exclusion, and identity. A recurrent theme is that 
of tension and conflict: between uniformity and diversity, between official 
policies and real day-to-day life experiences, but also between policies in 
schools and the corporate world and their implementation. Several chapters 
present research about language policy issues that has previously not been fully 
or easily available to an English-language audience. Many of the chapters also 
provide up-to-date analyses of language policy issues in particular regions or 
countries, focusing on recent developments.
