The sub-project analyses the interactions between ideas of security and language policies and measures in a phase of dynamic industrialisation and urbanisation. Using the example of three East Central European industrial cities (Pilsen, Drohobych, Lodz), it asks how and by whom urban linguistic diversity was securitised between 1860 and 1918. In doing so, the project examines debates about language law and language justice on the ground and aims to contribute to an understanding of the interactions of cultural differentiation and intersectionality of social categories in the process of securitisation and their contribution to identity formation.
