This special issue of the Journal on Ethnopolitics and Minority Issues in Europe (JEMIE) brings together some of the participants of the symposium Political and Economic Resources and Obstacles of Minority Language Maintenance organized by the Language Survival Network ‘POGA’ at Tallinn University, Estonia, in December 2010. More than 20 scholars representing linguistics, anthropology, social sciences and law participated in the symposium, to present papers and discuss questions related to minority language loss, maintenance and revitalization. The six case studies contained in this special issue look at different minorities and regions in the European Union, Russia and the US. The linguistic communities discussed are the Russian-, Võru/Seto- and Latgalian-speaking minorities of Estonia and Latvia; the Welsh- and Breton-speaking communities of the Celtic language; the Russian Finno-Ugrian people with regional autonomies; and the native American groups of the Delaware/Cherokee and the Oneida. The reader will find articles relating to interdisciplinary research approaches in and on minority languages and minority language communities.
Was halten die Deutschen von ihrer Muttersprache? Wie denken sie über andere Sprachen und deutsche Dialekte (siehe auch Schoel / Stahlberg in diesem Band)? Wie nehmen sie Veränderungen ihrer Sprache wahr und was halten sie von fremdsprachlichen Einflüssen, wie z. B. der Verwendung von Anglizismen? Sind Deutsche, umgekehrt betrachtet, besonders kritisch, wenn andere Deutsche Englisch sprechen? Und wie bewerten sie andere Personen, die z.B. einen französischen oder russischen Akzent im Deutschen besitzen? Mit all diesen Fragen hat sich das vorliegende Teilprojekt im Rahmen dieses von der Volkswagenstiftung geförderten Forschungsprojekts beschäftigt. Ausgehend von sozialpsychologischen Theorien und Methoden, wurden Spracheinstellungen in Deutschland näher untersucht.
Over the past decades, problems related to linguistic minorities and their well-being, as well as to minority languages and their maintenance, have developed as an independent branch of minority studies. Studies of language in society and sociolinguistics, strategies of minority language survival and the empowerment of their speakers have produced a considerable output of case studies and theoretical writings.In this multifaceted field of investigation, language use, language practices, language policies and language politics represent interrelated aspects of social and linguistic relations that cannot be meaningfully addressed from a point of view of one scientific discipline only. This is specially the case when one wants to understand processes of language loss and maintenance, or the revitalization and empowerment of a language community. Such processes are linguistic expressions of complex social settings, and reflect group and individual identities that in turn express changing systems of collective values, human networks, fashions and social practices.
