Book Synopsis Language Rights and Cultural Diversity by : Xabier Irujo Ametzaga
Download or read book Language Rights and Cultural Diversity written by Xabier Irujo Ametzaga and published by Center for Basque Studies Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are around 6,000 living languages in the world, but as of 2012, less than 4 percent of them can claim official status in one of more of the 196 existing states. This lack of official status, along with other cultural, political, and legal factors, is contributing to a worldwide loss of linguistic diversity and cultural richness. The essays in this book explore the many facets of language rights and language protection from a variety of theoretical, legal, and academic perspectives. Important lessons are taken from the Basque case in Europe, and Native American and French-Canadian cases in North America. Woven throughout the book is the belief in the power of discourse and research to protect and even enhance linguistic diversity through legal recognition and other means. Language protection, however, is only possible if we encourage the acceptance of cultural diversity and multilingualism as a positive outcome for the whole population of the state, not just for a minority with in it. We should abandon the idea of the monolingual mono-cultural nation-state, and encourage the population of each country to adopt the concept of a multi-cultural state.

Book excerpt: In France, the interruption of the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages ratification process following a decision by the Constitutional Council gave rise to a heated debate.

Do measures to protect regional or minority languages represent a real danger to a country's official language? Can regional or minority languages be effectively protected just by putting the principles of the charter into practice without going through the ratification process? How should France's position be understood in the light of the growing number of ratifications, including by the majority of the current members of the European Union?

Book Synopsis Regional and Minority Languages in the European Union by : Magdalena Pasikowska-Schnass
Download or read book Regional and Minority Languages in the European Union written by Magdalena Pasikowska-Schnass and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly half of the approximately six thousand languages spoken in the world are vulnerable or in danger of disappearing. In the EU, 40 to 50 million people speak one of its 60 regional and minority languages (RMLs), some of which are at serious risk. RMLs account for linguistic diversity and belong to humanity's intangible cultural heritage. International organisations, such as Unesco, the Council of Europe and the OSCE, are concerned with the risk that RMLs face and undertake actions to protect their linguistic rights. Non-respect for regional or minority communities' linguistic rights is qualified as racial discrimination, a breach of human rights. While language policy is an exclusive competence of its Member States, the EU can support actions promoting and protecting RMLs. However, the current complex political and economic situation in the EU is not favourable for such efforts. Nevertheless, over the years, the EU has undertaken education-related initiatives at all levels of teaching, including with regard to research that facilitates the production of RML teaching materials, the presence of RMLs in cyberspace, and the work on modern-world RML terminology. It has also recognised the need for RMLs to be taught to non-native speakers and has supported their media dissemination. The European Parliament has supported the promotion of RMLs and called for the protection of endangered languages.
