Multilingual Europe by Guus Extra

This book offers an inclusive perspective on the constellation of languages in Europe by taking into account official state languages, regional minority languages and immigrant minority languages as constituent parts of Europe's identity. Both facts and policies on multilingualism and plurilingual education are addressed in case studies at the national and European level. The themes of the book are addressed from phenomenological, demographic, sociolinguistic and educational points of view.
"The book's contribution lies in its call for a common European language policy that takes these new realities into account and in its provision of a highly informative resource for a contemporary European language policy research"Kerry Taylor-Leech in: Language Policy 9/2010
