Description - Language Planning in Malawi, Mozambique and the Philippines by Robert B Kaplan
This volume covers the language situation in Malawi, Mozambique and the Philippines explaining the linguistic diversity, the historical and political contexts and the current language situation, including language-in-education planning, the role of the media, the role of religion, and the roles of non-indigenous languages. The authors, Edrinnie Kayambazinthu, Armando Jorge Lopes and Andrew Gonzales, are indigenous and have been participants in the language planning context. To date, Mozambique and Malawi have not been well represented in the international language policy/planning literature. The purpose of the volumes in this series is to present up-to-date information on polities that are not well-known to researchers in the field. A longer range purpose is to collect comparable information on as many polities as possible in order to facilitate the development of a richer theory to guide language policy and planning in other polities that undertake the development of a national policy on languages. This volume joins a series which is currently committed to providing descriptions of The Czech Republic, Hungary, The Ivory Coast, Japan, Nepal, Singapore, South Africa, Sweden, Taiwan and Tunisia.
