Language choice in postcolonial lawlessons from Malaysia's bilingual legal system /[electronic resource] :by Richard Powell. - Singapore :Springer Singapore :2020. - xxi, 300 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - Language policy,v.221571-5361 ;. - Language policy ;v.22..

1 Conceptualising and contextualising Malaysian bilingual law -- 2 Political and economic influences on multilingualism and multijuralism -- 3 Status planning in Malaysian law -- 4 Corpus Planning -- 5 Acquisition Planning -- 6 Discourse Planning -- 7 Language practices in legal education -- 8 Bilingualism in Law Offices -- 9 Bilingual courtrooms -- 10 Common Law and vernacularisation: A global perspective -- 11 Malaysia bilingualism as a model for postcolonial law.

This book discusses multilingual postcolonial common law, focusing on Malaysia's efforts to shift the language of law from English to Malay, and weighing the pros and cons of planned language shift as a solution to language-based disadvantage before the law in jurisdictions where the majority of citizens lack proficiency in the traditional legal medium. Through analysis of legislation and policy documents, interviews with lawyers, law students and law lecturers, and observations of court proceedings and law lectures, the book reflects on what is entailed in changing the language of the law. It reviews the implications of societal bilingualism for postcolonial justice systems, and raises an important question for language planners to consider: if the language of the law is changed, what else about the law changes?
