LINGUISTIC DIVERSITY IN EUROPE GEBUNDEN

This book  which emerges in the context of the European research network LINEE (Languages in a
Network of European Excellence)  is concerned with European multilingualism both as a political
concept and as a social reality. It features cutting-edge studies by linguists and
anthropologists who perceive multilingualism as a discursive phenomenon which can be revealed
and analyzed through empirical fieldwork. The book presents a fresh perspective of European
multilingualism as it takes the reader through key themes of social consciousness identity 
policy  education  economy and relevant societal levels of organization (European  national 
regional). With its distinct focus on post-national society caught in unifying as well as
diversifying socio-political currents  the volume problematizes emerging contradictions
inherent in the idea of a Europe beyond the nation state between speech minorities and
majorities  economic realities  or socio-political ideologies.
