Radical individuals, like anarchists and socialists in the late 19th and early 20th centuries were quite active when it came to crossing borders, creating radical networks, especially across the Atlantic Ocean.

This book brings together current research by leading international scholars on the often contentious nature of language policies and their practical outcomes in North America, Australia and Europe. It presents a range of perspectives from which to engage with a variety of pressing issues raised by multilingualism, multiculturalism, immigration, exclusion, and identity. A recurrent theme is that of tension and conflict: between uniformity and diversity, between official policies and real day-to-day life experiences, but also between policies in schools and the corporate world and their implementation.

Many of the chapters also provide up-to-date analyses of language policy issues in particular regions or countries, focusing on recent developments.
