Language without Rights is a book-length critique of the concept of
language rights. Synthesizing insights from a variety of
disciplines, including linguistic anthropology, sociolinguistics,
sociology and political philosophy, Wee demonstrates how the appeal
to language rights faces a number of conceptual and practical
problems, particularly because the discourse of rights is
fundamentally inconsistent with the socially variable nature of
language. The book also explores an alternative that is more in
tune with the complexities of language in social life by suggesting
that issues involving language are better managed within a model of
deliberative democracy.
