The Languages of Nation: Attitudes and Norms

This book explores research on linguistic prescriptivism and social identities, in contemporary and historical contexts of cross-cultural contact and awareness. Providing multilingual and multidisciplinary perspectives on both institutional and informal mechanisms of prescriptivism, our contributors relate language norms to frameworks of identity.
