The book is a comprehensive and up-to-date collection of 17 papers by renowned scholars in the field of linguistic endangerment. It showcases the resilience and vitality of endangered languages (ELs) as they continue to thrive despite various challenges. The volume emphasizes the diverse efforts undertaken by individuals, communities, and institutions to promote and sustain the use of these languages, highlighting their significance for cultural heritage and identity.
While acknowledging the realities of the general state of endangered languages and linguistic diversity, the studies in this volume offer a positive perspective by focusing on evidence of success and sustainable practices in EL communities worldwide. The articles provide insights and analysis of key concepts and issues within the field without imposing prescriptive approaches or assuming a linear progression of knowledge.
The book covers a wide range of topics, including theoretical frameworks, empirical studies, and comparative narratives. It explores linguistic endangerment in regions such as Central Asia and Northern Africa, providing a fresh perspective on areas that have been relatively understudied in the past.
Overall, this volume serves as a valuable resource for researchers, students, and policymakers interested in understanding the complexities of linguistic endangerment and the efforts to preserve and revitalize these languages. It contributes to the growing body of knowledge in the field and provides valuable insights into the ongoing struggle to protect and promote linguistic diversity.
