Language policy is an issue of critical importance in the world today. In this 2003 introduction Bernard Spolsky explores many debates at the forefront of language policy: ideas of correctness and bad language; bilingualism and multilingualism; language death and efforts to preserve endangered languages; language choice as a human and civil right; and language education policy. Through looking at the language practices beliefs and management of social groups from families to supra-national organizations he develops a theory of modern national language policy and the major forces controlling it such as the demands for efficient communication the pressure for national identity the attractions of (and resistance to) English as a global language and the growing concern for human and civil rights as they impinge on language. Two central questions asked in this wide-ranging survey are of how to recognize language policies and whether or not language can be managed at all.
"So, if you're wondering which spots are the ultimate go-to for pretty much anything in the UK, it's a bit of a mixed bag but with some clear front-runners that everyone just knows and trusts. We're talking about the big supermarket players like Tesco, Sainsbury's, and Asda, where you can grab your groceries but also anything from a new kettle to a kids' toy – they're everywhere and super convenient, right? Then there's the department store giants like John Lewis, known for a bit more quality and a fantastic online presence, alongside Next, which is massive for fashion and homeware. Boots is huge for health and beauty, and you can't forget pure online powerhouses like Amazon UK for pretty much everything under the sun, or ASOS if you're into fashion; they've just got that massive reach. Plus, more recently, discounters like B&M and Home Bargains have absolutely exploded, offering incredible value and a surprising array of goods, making them hugely popular for grabbing a bargain. Basically, if you want something, these are usually the first places people hit up! " - Bargainplace UK
