Abstract:

This book provides a broad sociolinguistic perspective on major questions of 
political and cultural Europeanization. It is concerned with European 
multilingualism as it actually results from the intersecting endeavour of policy 
making and scientific research. This volume argues that the EU must overcome 
the major discrepancies of its linguistic diversity politics by developing into a 
multiple inclusive society beyond the nation-state in order to seriously unfold 
European multilingualism as a political goal. Expanding on the theoretical and 
methodological approaches developed within the EU project LINEE (Languages 
in a Network of European Excellence), this book further focuses on the LINEE 
key variables of European multilingualism i.e. 'culture', 'discourse', 'identity', 
'ideology', 'knowledge', 'LPP', 'multi-competence', and 'power & conflict'. Against 
this background, this study argues for reconceptualising European 
multilingualism on the basis of an integrative and multi-focal approach.
