Produktbeschreibung

"Language Activism: The Role of Scholars in Linguistic Reform and Social Change brings forward state-of-the-art theoretical elaborations of language activism and presents depictions and discussions of personal in-field research and teaching experiences involving some form of social engagement and activism.
