在世界上6,000 - 7,000种语言中,只有几百种具有任何形式的官方地位,只有官方语言的使用者(占主导地位的语言的使用者)才享有所有语言人权。正如本书所收集的许多论文所证明的那样,大多数语言少数群体被剥夺了这些权利。这本书描述了什么是语言人权,谁有,谁没有,为什么,并建议哪些语言权利应被视为基本人权。语言人权引入了一个新的领域,将社会语言学,教育和少数民族问题与人权相结合。对语言少数群体的歧视十分普遍,尽管国家和国际法禁止这种做法。这本书分析了世界上许多国家的语言权利,包括北美和拉丁美洲,几个欧洲国家,前苏联,印度,库尔德斯坦,澳大利亚和新西兰。
Only a few hundred of the world's 6,000-7,000 languages have any kind of official status, and it is only speakers of official languages (speakers of dominant majority languages) who enjoy all linguistic human rights. As many of the collected papers in this book document, most linguistic minorities are deprived of these rights. This book describes what linguistic human rights are, who has and who does not have them and why, and suggests which linguistic rights should be regarded as basic human rights. Linguistic Human Rights introduces a new area, combining sociolinguistics, educational, and minority concerns with human rights. Discrimination against language minorities is widespread, despite national and international law prohibiting this. The book analyzes language rights in many countries worldwide, including North and Latin America, several European states, the former USSR, India, Kurdistan, Australia and New Zealand.
