About this title

Synopsis

Throughout Europe many minority languages, once threatened by ignorance, indifference and intolerance, began to experience some revitalization, but now face new threats from increased integration. This book discusses these issues with vivid, up-to-date examples from the Baltic to the Mediterranean, from Ireland to Turkey.
