This study explores the argument that postcolonial Africa has been
the setting for competing external language spread policies (LSPs)
by ex-colonial European countries at the turn of the 21st Century.
It focuses on the external LSPs developed by the governments of
Portugal, Brazil, United Kingdom, France and Germany towards
Mozambique and Guinea-Bissau from the 1990s to the present. The
study offers a perspective on the web of relationships involving
European ex-colonial powers and the African postcolonial countries
of Guinea-Bissau and Mozambique. The author seeks to examine the
development of external (European) LSPs and the construction of
politico-linguistic blocs in a complex context whilst taking into
account the colonial heritage and its lingering dependencies, the
construction and maintenance of nationhood and the increasing
globalisation of the world.
