Abstract:

This book aims to provide an overview of the various methods adopted
for terminology planning in the languages under examination.
Collectively, the authors will attempt to establish an overall
understanding of terminology planning in Europe, starting from an
examination of the organizations engaged in terminology planning in
different European linguistic contexts. Each chapter will focus on a
specific language or language landscape, focusing on issues such as:
- the defining features of these terminology planning institutions,
including their size, structure, funding sources, specialization,
public recognition, publication methods, and collaborations with other
organizations;
- the responsibilities and operational procedures, for example as
regards standardization, description, evaluation, quantification of
results, dissemination, and terminometry;
- terminology planning versus general language planning;
- the historical development of these institutions and the future
prospects for terminology planning in each language or language
landscape.
The individual authors will provide an independent overview of one
language landscape. Overall, the book tells a fascinating story about
how each language handles terminology as an essential linguistic
factor in everyday society.

Written In: English (eng)
