- More about Rethinking Language Policy
Bernard Spolsky's updated language policy theory focuses on individuals, examining language practices, beliefs, and planning efforts across various levels and domains, highlighting the diversity of linguistic repertoires and the multiplicity of forces affecting language shift and maintenance.

Bernard Spolsky's updated theory of language policy begins with the individual speaker rather than the nation, encompassing language practices, beliefs, and planning efforts of individuals, families, public and private institutions, local and national activists, advocates, and managers, and nations. He examines the diversity of linguistic repertoires and the multiplicity of forces, linguistic and non-linguistic, which account for language shift and maintenance. By starting with the individual speaker and moving through the various levels and domains, Spolsky shows the many different policies with which a national government must compete and illustrates why national policy is so difficult. This definitive guide to the field is essential reading for policy makers, stakeholders, researchers, and students of language policy.
