Languages and power : accommodation and resistance / Mâairâead Nic Craith -- Globalisation and transformation : language planning in new contexts / Diarmait Mac Giolla Chrâiost -- Linguistichuman rights in education : international case studies/ Jane Saville -- English in Europe: threat or promise? / Robert Phillipson -- Minority protection and lesser-used language promotion : the convention on the future of the European Union/ Markus Warasin -- Broadcasting for minorities : the case of the Celtic languages / Philip McDermott -- Language, culture and identity : the Chinese community in Northern Ireland/ Mary Delargy -- Intercultural communication : Chinese culture in UK education / Rebecca Fong -- Faith, language and identity : Muslim migrants in Scotland and Northern Ireland/ Gabriele Marranci -- Language, faith and communication / John Dunlop -- 9/11 and the war on terrorism : the clash of 'words', 'cultures' and 'civilisations' : myth or reality / Javaid Rehman.

The contributors to this book explore the significance of language in articulating and maintaining identity in the context of power relations at all levels in society. As globalization gains momentum, and new technologies emerge, concepts of power and information are reshaped and the role of language changes. Contributions examine the importance of English as an indicator of power and influence in global contexts. The authors also focus on the new transnational context for minority language activists within the EU. Such benefits have not been extended to speakers of immigrant languages as the principle of indigeneity continues to remain central to language policy. Different mother tongues divide migrant and indigenous populations but relations can be vastly improved with structures reinforcing intercultural communication. Language can also act as boundary between peoples of different faiths and ethnic backgrounds and the final contribution explores changing concepts in the wake of 9/11 and the subsequent 'war on terror'.
