Within the European context, linguistic diversity can be studied at
the level of both official state languages and non-national
languages. This comprehensive overview offers insightful
crossnational and crosscontinental perspectives on non-national
languages in terms of both regional and immigrant languages. The
book focuses on mapping linguistic diversity in both the private
and public domain. Methodological issues and empirical outcomes are
explored for a variety of European and non-European countries and
languages. The book consists of four parts. Part 1 provides an
introduction to the subject, as well as an overview and discussion
of migration statistics and language use. Part 2 deals with the
mapping of regional languages in Europe, exemplified by case
studies on Welsh, Basque, and Frisian. Part 3 focuses on immigrant
languages in Europe and includes case studies from both national
(Switzerland, Italy, France) and crossnational (Multilingual Cities
Project) perspectives. Part 4 turns to mapping linguistic diversity
abroad with case studies on Australia, South Africa, Turkey, and
Japan.
