“Leave no one behind”
In September 2015 the United Nations (UN) adopted 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) offering an internationally agreed blueprint for economic, environmental and social development. However those most in need and specifically targeted by the SDGs face significant barriers in accessing information and knowledge about the goals and sustainability in a language or medium that can be understood. Drawing on previous research on the UN’s language …

A network model of language policy and planning
This article contributes to recent critical discussion of ‘agency’ in language policy and planning (LPP) research and practice. It argues that whilst scholars have widened their purview to consider the impact of individual actors on LPP in different contexts, the field has not developed or embraced theoretical and methodological frameworks which satisfactorily model or investigate the network of actor impact on LPP. This article analyzes the curr…
The value of adopting multiple approaches and methodologies in the investigation of Ethnolinguistic Vitality
The concept of ‘ethnolinguistic vitality’ (EV) has received variable acceptance and support within academic investigations since its introduction by Giles, Bourhis & Taylor (1977). It has especially proven to be a valuable heuristic in studies of language maintenance and shift. However, the reliability and validity of the instruments used to investigate EV, especially questionnaires used to test subjective vitality, have proven to be more problem…
Geostrategies of Interlingualism
Fettes (2004) asserts that ‘politico-strategies’ of languages are no longer viable frameworks for ‘national and community policy’. Rather, he proposes the development of ‘geostrategies of interlingualism’, i.e. linguistic strategies which promote international communication equitably and efficiently, whilst respecting and ensuring language maintenance and pluralism. He asserts that the future development of interlingual communication will depend …
The impact of English in postcolonial, postmodern Cyprus
The role and potential hegemonic affect of the English language in postmodern and postcolonial nations continues to dominate discourse internationally. Recent studies in Europe have highlighted the benefits and costs of English as a lingua franca and have also described changing patterns of use within communities, by underlining its potential dominance at the expense of national varieties, leading to the reformulation of national, social and cult…
Issues of Identity and Power in a Greek-Cypriot Community
An investigation of reported attitudes and language use in Cyprus has enabled an interpretation of social conditions affording status and 'price' to products available in the linguistic market-place. It has identified boundaries of social division and provided reasons for the coexistence of multiple linguistic codes. An empirical investigation, with recourse to the theory of practice (Bourdieu, 1997), identifies and accounts for the use of nation…
