Abstract

The article deals with the issues of language conflict and the capacity to estimate the conflict potential of the language situation in multilingual communities. The prerequisites and causes for the emergence of language conflicts in language communities, as well as the incentives and triggers that provoke their occurrence are investigated. The research highlights applicability of current approaches to a conflict study developed in the frameworks of social sciences for language conflict potential identification. The methodology for measuring the conflict potential of the language community is described as conducting surveys with respondents, further assessment of existing threats to the linguistic situation stability, and evaluation of speakers' satisfaction. The efficiency of adopted procedures application is proved, their predictive potential is revealed. The method for assessing tensions in a language community is considered in the context of a threat to the identity of a language group, and the results of the practical application of this technique are based on a field study conducted in the Republic of Dagestan. The effectiveness of conflict potential studying method as a combination of realistic and symbolic threats and inter-group anxiety is confirmed on the material of respondents' questionnaire surveys and interviews with experts conducted in the Republic of Tatarstan. The assessment of tension in the language community, based on scaling technique that provides possibility for identifying four stages in the development of a language conflict, was carried out on the data obtained with the survey of residents of the Republic of Kalmykia.

语言冲突潜势的估计方法
本文讨论了语言冲突的问题,以及在多语言社区中评估语言状况潜在冲突的能力。研究了语言社区中语言冲突产生的前提和原因,以及引发语言冲突的动因和触发因素。该研究强调了当前方法在社会科学框架下对语言冲突潜在识别的冲突研究中的适用性。测量语言社区冲突潜力的方法被描述为与受访者进行调查,进一步评估语言局势稳定的现有威胁,以及评估说话者的满意度。证明了所采用的程序应用的有效性,揭示了它们的预测潜力。评估语言社区紧张局势的方法是在一个语言群体的身份受到威胁的背景下考虑的,这种技术的实际应用结果是基于在达吉斯坦共和国进行的实地研究。在鞑靼斯坦共和国进行的受访者问卷调查和专家访谈的材料证实了冲突潜力研究方法作为现实威胁和象征性威胁与群体间焦虑相结合的有效性。根据对卡尔梅克共和国居民进行的调查所获得的数据,对语言社区的紧张局势进行了评估,评估的依据是可以确定语言冲突发展的四个阶段的尺度技术。
