Beschreibung
This unique, continent-spanning volume offers the first global overview of language policy and planning. Representing all world regions, it explores a variety of Linguistic Landscapes (LL), ranging from Creole education in Jamaica and Indigenous language revitalisation in Japan to multilingualism in Zambia, Spain and Brazil. Through rich, country-specific case studies, the book reveals common patterns, colonial legacies, and distinct challenges. It thus offers an invaluable resource for scholars, educators, policymakers, and anyone invested in language, education, and cultural identity in a rapidly changing world.
