Abstract
Studies reported in this journal have so far mostly addressed language policy issues in European contexts. This special issue brings together six contributions addressing language policies in Asian contexts. The purpose is to join the discussion of language policies by bringing in Asian insights and experiences as well as from Asian perspectives. It is the hope of this special issue to enable the comparison of language policy research on the basis of the presumably East-West divide, so as to reveal overarching concerns beyond sociocultural and geo-political boundaries and to understand the convergence and/or divergence of language policy issues in different local representations in a wider context.
期刊介绍：
European Journal of Language Policy / Revue européenne de politique linguistique is a peer-reviewed journal published by Liverpool University Press in association with the Conseil Européen pour les langues / European Language Council. The journal aims to address major developments in language policy from a European perspective, regarding multilingualism and the diversity of languages as valuable assets in the culture, politics and economics of twenty-first century societies. The journal’s primary focus is on Europe, broadly understood, but it is alert to policy developments in the wider world. European Journal of Language Policy invites proposals or manuscripts of articles studying any aspect of language policy, and any aspect of the area of languages for which policies may need to be developed or changed. It particularly welcomes proposals that provide greater understanding of the factors which contribute to policy-making, and proposals that examine the effects of particular policies on language learning or language use.
