About the Book

English summary: Although linguistic plurality and power relations between languages (and their speakers) are changing constantly and at high speed as a result of global migration and democratization processes, the general understanding of languages - at least in Europe - still reflects hierarchies and classifications that are based on the 19th century-based nation-state ideology. However, status differences between languages and the associated power structures cannot be described using 19th century concepts and terminology. Such an understanding would negate all socio-political and socio-cultural developments of the last decades. In recent decades, globalization, increased mobility, transnational networking, and innovative communication technologies have created new forms of language use, more complex and diverse power relations and generally diverse perspectives regarding language. This book deals with relevant aspects regarding the status dimensions of language against the background of the ideal of an open, pluralistic society. These are the key points: Changes in the linguistic landscape in the course of/as a result of migration and globalization Role and status of languages in pluralistic societies The relationship between native languages, diaspora languages, migrant languages, and majority languages Languages and the relevance of ICT Power relations between languages and their speakers The volume Voicing Plurality in an Open World brings together scholars from the fields of linguistics and related disciplines with interest and expertise in linguistic issues and globalization issues, focusing on the status and power relations between languages and their speakers, and their influence and/or transformative potential in a world characterized by mobility, increased complexity, and diverse dynamic formations of cultural, linguistic, and social identities. The authors included here collaborated with Prof. Dieter Halwach in a variety of ways throughout his academic career. The book reflects the interests and focus of his work, as well as his efforts in developing the Plurilingualism Research Unit at the treffpunkt sprachen Centre of the University of Graz. German description: Obwohl sich sprachliche Pluralitat und Machtrelationen zwischen Sprachen (beziehungsweise deren SprecherInnen) als Folge von globaler Migration und Demokratisierungsprozessen konstant und mit hoher Geschwindigkeit verandern, spiegelt das allgemeine Verstandnis von Sprachen - zumindest in Europa - noch immer Hierarchien und Klassifikationen wider, die auf der Nationalstaatenideologie des 19. Jahrhunderts basieren. Statusunterschiede zwischen Sprachen und die damit einhergehenden Machtstrukturen konnen jedoch nicht durch Konzepte und Terminologien aus dem 19. Jahrhundert beschrieben werden. Ein solches Verstandnis wurde alle soziopolitischen und soziokulturellen Entwicklungen der letzten Jahrzehnte negieren. Globalisierung, erhohte Mobilitat, transnationales Networking sowie innovative Kommunikationstechnologien haben in den letzten Jahrzehnten neue Formen der Sprachverwendung, komplexere und diversere Machtverhaltnisse und generell vielfaltige Perspektiven bezuglich Sprache geschaffen. Der Sammelband befasst sich mit relevanten Aspekten bezuglich Statusdimensionen von Sprache vor dem Hintergrund des Ideals einer offenen, pluralistischen Gesellschaft. Kernpunkte sind wie folgt: Veranderungen in der sprachlichen Landschaft im Zuge von/als Folge von Migration und Globalisierung Rolle und Status von Sprachen in pluralistischen Gesellschaften Die Beziehung zwischen native languages (autochthonen Sprachen), diaspora languages (Diaspora Sprachen), Sprachen von MigrantInnen und Mehrheitssprachen Sprachen und die Relevanz von ICT (Information Communication Technology) Machtrelationen zwischen Sprachen und ihren SprecherInnen Der Band Voicing Plurality in an Open World bringt WissenschaftlerInnen aus den Bereichen Linguistik und verwandten Disziplinen mit Interesse und Fachkenntnissen in linguistischen Fragestellungen und Globalisierungsthemen zusammen, deren Schwerpunkt auf den Status- und Machtrelationen zwischen Sprachen und ihren SprecherInnen und deren Einfluss und/oder transformatives Potenzial in einer Welt, die durch Mobilitat, erhohte Komplexitat und vielfaltige dynamische Formationen von kulturellen, sprachlichen und sozialen Identitaten gekennzeichnet ist, liegt. Die AutorInnen haben wahrend Prof. Dieter Halwachs wissenschaftlicher Tatigkeit auf vielfaltige Art und Weise mit ihm zusammengearbeitet. So spiegelt der Sammelband die Interessen und Arbeitsschwerpunkte, sowie seine Aufbauarbeit des Forschungsbereich Plurilingualismus am treffpunkt sprachen der Universitat Graz wider, die das Wirken von Prof. Halwachs kennzeichnen.
