Much of the interest in minority languages revolves around issues of identity politics, language rights and the plight of 'endangered' languages. This book summarizes and analyzes these pivotal themes. It focuses on the relationship between language and group identity, a relationship that is thrown into greatest relief in 'minority' settings.
