This book represents a significant intervention into the debates surrounding Brexit and
language policy. It analyses the language capabilities and resources of the United Kingdom in a
new post-referendum climate in which public hostility towards foreign languages is matched by
the necessity of renegotiating and building relationships with the rest of Europe and beyond.
The authors scrutinize the availability of key resources in diverse sectors of society
including politics economics business science and education while simultaneously offering
practical advice and guidance on how to thrive in the new international environment. This
extremely timely edited collection brings together leading researchers from across the field of
language policy and is sure to appeal not only to students and scholars of this subject but
also to practitioners policy makers and educators.
