| Abstract | Nine specialists give us their analyses and diagnoses of the legal status of language planning and of the current situation of the Basque language in its homeland and abroad. Articles detail contemporary legal cases, laws, government policies and programs both in Euskal Herria and in the Basque diaspora that hinder or help the living Basque language, Euskara. Language coexistence in Canada is highlighted as a comparative reference. |
