Such rights are often asserted and defended in response to their being violated. The importance of understanding these events and issues, and their relationship to individual, ethnic, and national identity, is central to research and debate in a range of fields outside of, as well as within, linguistics. This book provides a clearly written introduction for linguists and non-specialists alike, presenting basic facts about the role of language in the formation of identity and the preservation of culture. It articulates and explores categories of conflict and language rights abuses through detailed presentation of illustrative case studies, and distills from these key cross-linguistic and cross-cultural generalizations. 650 0 $a Linguistic change $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Group identity $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Ethnocentrism. 650 7 $a Ethnocentrism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00916081 650 7 $a Linguistic change $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00999169 650 7 $a Minderheitensprache. $0 (DE-588)4132313-0 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Sprachkonflikt. $0 (DE-588)7855239-4 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Sprachpolitik. $0 (DE-588)4077732-7 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Sprachwandel. $0 (DE-588)4056508-7 $2 gnd 700 1 $a Dubinsky, Stanley, $d 1952- $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191122022630.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9B0EC984462211E9A3F20F6897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
