This book brings together the fields of language policy and
discourse studies from a multidisciplinary theoretical,
methodological and empirical perspective. The chapters in this
volume are written by international scholars active in the field of
language policy and planning and discourse studies. The diverse
research contexts range from education in Paraguay and Luxembourg
via businesses in Wales to regional English language policies in
Tajikistan. Readers are thereby invited to think critically about
the mutual relationship between language policy and discourse in a
range of social, political, economic and cultural spheres. Using
approaches that draw on discourse-analytic, anthropological,
ethnographic and critical sociolinguistic frameworks, the
contributors in this collection explore and refine the 'discursive'
and the 'critical' aspects of language policy as a multilayered,
fluid, ideological, discursive and social process that can operate
as a tool of social change as well as reinforcing established power
structures and inequalities.
