Opportunities and challenges of bilingualism

More about the book

„All in all, however, the present book is a readable, informative, and highly recommended, serval small proofing omissions notwithstanding. For those who have just started their journey into the dense forest of bilingualism, this book will be a good guide to theories and major issues of societal bilingualism, such as language planning, managing, ideology and maintenance/shift. To those who are already familiar with the field, the cases reported from various parts of the world should be quite intriguing and provide rich resources as well.“Masayo Yamamoto in: Language and Education 18, 5-2004
