Abstract:

This Handbook provides a state-of-the-art account of research in language
policy and planning (LPP). Through a critical examination of LPP, the Handbook
offers new direction for a field in theoretical and methodological turmoil as
a result of the socio-economic, institutional, and discursive processes of
change taking place under the conditions of Late Modernity. Late Modernity
refers to the widespread processes of late capitalism leading to the selective
privatization of services (including education), the information revolution
associated with rapidly changing statuses and functions of languages, the
weakening of the institutions of nation-states (along with the strengthening
of non-state actors), and the fragmentation of overlapping and competing
identities associated with new complexities of language-identity relations and
new forms of multilingual language use. As an academic discipline in the
social sciences, LPP is fraught with tensions between these processes of
change and the still-powerful ideological framework of modern nationalism. It
is an exciting and energizing time for LPP research.
