This seminar introduces you to a range of approaches, perspectives and contexts within the field of language policy, and links these with a variety of practical applications and ongoing case studies from English-speaking and international contexts. More specifically, the module aims to provide you with an in-depth understanding of the key theoretical and analytical concepts that underpin the planned and organised use of language in society as part of larger social, economic and political processes in times of globalisation, multilingualism, and international migration. The module raises awareness of the socio-political, socio-cultural and ideological dimensions of language policy in societies around the world.Aims:
• You will develop a critical understanding of different elements of language policy, such as language ideologies and language practices, and how these shape language behaviour and play out in people’s practices on the ground.
• You will gain hands-on insights into how language policy is written, implemented and experienced in a range of areas such as education, the workplace and the field of politics.
• You will get familiar with discourse-analytic, ethnographic and sociolinguistic tools to analyse language policy as text, discourse and practice.Method of the course:
This course is blocked and hybrid, with digital sessions via Zoom and in-person sessions on days as indicated
Based on readings, practice-based activities, joint discussions, group work, assignments, and individual research, you will learn about relevant language policy approaches, methods and contexts. By undertaking small-scale empirical studies, you will gain experience in undertaking language policy research (case studies) and gain insights into the layers of language policy in practice.
