Image and Prestige Planning
The aim of this paper is to clarify some notions about image and prestige planning. Starting from the Welsh example of language policy aiming to revitalise a language in danger of further decreasing in number of speakers and in centrality to Welsh life, definitions of four related terms are explored: image, status, prestige and identity.

Immigration and language policy in France
French language policies concerning immigrants are described and evaluated. The author notes that such policies are confused by the fact that it is unclear whether they are designed to facilitate the integration of immigrants and their children into French society, or to preserve the language and culture of the immigrant's country of origin in order to facilitate an eventual return
