Description

With over 6000 languages existing across fewer than 200 states, the world faces significant political questions regarding linguistic diversity. This book explores the normative challenges of creating a just language policy in a globalized society. It examines whether language minorities deserve specific protections and whether language rights should extend to immigrants. As English continues to rise as a universal lingua franca, this text investigates whether this trend is a positive development or a cause for concern. The work focuses on the theories of Philippe Van Parijs, a central figure in the debate over linguistic justice. His bold and controversial theories provide a foundation for understanding how societies can respond to the complexities of language diversity. This volume is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of language, politics, and justice.
