东帝汶最近在全世界引起了公众的极大兴趣,特别是在1999年8月至9月的事件之后。它有一个不寻常的殖民历史:几个世纪的葡萄牙接触和控制(16世纪至1975年),其次是一个短暂的,但非常激烈的时期印度尼西亚占领(1975年至1999年)。从语言规划的角度来看,这是一个相对不寻常的案例研究,因为它使我们能够考虑两个非常不同的殖民势力对同一语言领土的影响。葡萄牙人试图改变东帝汶的语言环境,在大多数情况下,步伐相对缓慢,从20世纪70年代开始,只显示出对当地环境产生严重影响的真实的潜力。但葡萄牙和东帝汶的政治动荡使这一切突然停止--特别是在印度尼西亚人到来之后,他们迅速采取行动,将印度尼西亚语、社会、文化和语言强加给东帝汶人。军事和经济模式-在东帝汶。但是,随着印度尼西亚占领的结束和1999年9月国际行政当局的到来,东帝汶局势再次出人意料地发生了根本性变化。自那时以来,语言规划问题已证明是东帝汶最有争议的问题之一。
East Timor has in recent times generated significant public interest around the world, especially after the events of August–September 1999. It has an unusual colonial history: centuries of Portuguese contact and control (1500s–1975) were followed by a brief but very intense period of Indonesian occupation (1975–1999). From the language-planning perspective, it makes for a relatively unusual case study since it allows us to consider the impact of two very different colonising powers on the same linguistic territory. Portuguese attempts to modify the linguistic environment in East Timor were in most cases relatively slow to gather pace, only showing real potential to seriously impact on the local environment from the 1970s on. But political upheaval in Portugal and then in East Timor brought all of this to a sudden halt – especially after the arrival of the Indonesians who quickly moved to impose an Indonesian linguistic, social, military and economic model – in East Timor. But the situation in East Timor has once again unexpectedly undergone radical change with the end of Indonesian occupation and the arrival of international administration in September 1999. Since that time language planning issues have proved to be amongst the most contentious issues in East Timor.
