Multilingual encounters have been commonplace in many types of
institutions, and have become an essential part of supranational
institutions such as the EU since their inception. This volume
explores and discusses different ways of researching the discursive
dimension of these encounters, and critically examines their
relevance to policy, politics and society as a whole. This includes
institutions at the local, regional and supranational level.
Multilingualism in institutions is currently often seen as an
obstacle rather than an opportunity, at least with respect to
European public and private spheres. The volume asks: - exactly how
is multilingualism conceptualized and talked about in different
institutions? - how do different institutions 'deal' with
multilingualism, both internally and externally? - what are the
policy making rules and challenges for the future for various
institutions with respect to multilingualism?
