Demandes citoyennes alsaciennes - Pour une nouvelle politique linguistique et culturelle
Alors que se tiennent en Alsace les Assises de la langue et de la culture régionales, nous apportons au débat l'appel en faveur d'une charte linguistique pour l'Alsace que notre association a lancé ces derniers temps, obtenant plus de 3600 signatures de personnalités représentatives du monde politique, économique et culturel. Nous tenons également à publier des contributions livrées à l'occasion de ces mêmes Assises au sujet des politiques présentes et d'une nouvelle politique à venir, à obtenir. Une langue ne saurait vivre et survivre sans statut lui assurant une existence sociale, économique et culturelle, seul à même de la promouvoir. 6500 langues sont employées à travers le monde. Disparaissent celles qui ne bénéficient pas d'une reconnaissance officielle ou légale, nationale ou régionale. Pour bien se rendre compte de ce qu'un tel statut devrait contenir et de l'ampleur de la tâche, nous proposons un exemple de charte linguistique pour l'Alsace. Pierre Klein

Manual of Romance Sociolinguistics
The Romance languages offer a particularly fertile ground for the exploration of the relationship between language and society in different social contexts and communities. Focusing on a wide range of Romance languages – from national languages to minoritised varieties – this volume explores questions concerning linguistic diversity and multilingualism, language contact, medium and genre, variation and change. It will interest researchers and policy-makers alike.
Breton et gallo
This book is introduces the current language situation in Brittany. The Brittany is a French region distinguished by a particularly interesting language situation. It?s a region with two local languages (the celtic Breton in the western part and the romance Gallo in the eastern). Both of these languages have been influenced by the repressive language policy from the times of the French revolution. Those measures led to the language shift. Since then, the number of the users of those languages has been decreasing. Nevertheless, since the 70s, the perception of the breton identity has been changing and the population has been progresivelly expressing its interest in the regional languages. Now...
Handbook of Early Language Education
This is the first international and interdisciplinary handbook to offer a comprehensive and an in-depth overview of findings from contemporary research, theory, and practice in early childhood language education in various parts of the world and with different populations. The contributions by leading scholars and practitioners are structured to give a survey of the topic, highlight its importance, and provide a critical stance. The book covers preschool ages, and looks at children belonging to diverse ethno-linguistic groups and experiencing different histories and pathways of their socio-linguistic and socio-cultural development and early education. The languages under the scope of this ha...

Ecological Urbanism: The Nature of the City
Ecological Urbanism: The Nature of the City asks the questions that are important inside and outside the built environment professions: what are climate change, urbanisation and ecology doing to the theory and practice of urban design? How does Ecological Urbanism figure in this change? What is Ecological Urbanism? In answer, this book is neither definitive – impossible when a subject is still in motion – nor encyclopaedic – equally impossible when so much has been written on almost every aspect of these essays. Instead, it seeks to rebalance the ecological narrative and its embryonic modes of practice with the narratives of urbanism and its older, deeply embedded modes of practice. It examines the implications for cities and the designers of cities now we are required to again address their metabolic as well as social and formal dimensions, and it explores the extent to which environmental engineering and natural systems design can and should become drivers for the remaking of cities in the 21st century. Above all, it argues that sooner rather than later, urbanism needs to become environmentally literate, and environmental design needs to become culturally literate.
Linguistic Culture and Language Policy
By looking closely at the multilingual democracies of India, France and the USA, Harold F. Schiffman examines how language policy is primarily a social construct based on belief systems, attitudes and myths. Linguistic Culture and Language Policy exposes language policy as culture-specific, helping us to understand why language policies evolve the way they do; why they work, or not; and how people's lives are affected by them. These issues will be of specific interest to linguists specialising in multilingual/multicultural societies, bilingual educationalists, curriculum planners and teachers.
