The Handbook of Linguistic Human Rights

Congrats to Living Tongues Director Dr. Greg Anderson and Program Director Anna Luisa Daigneault for co-writing a chapter in this amazing new book! Edited by renowned human rights scholars Tove Skutnabb-Kangas and Robert Phillipson, “The Handbook of Linguistic Human Rights” is a groundbreaking new work that sheds light on case studies of linguistic human rights around the world, raising much-needed awareness of the struggles of many peoples and communities.

The book presents a diverse range of theoretically grounded studies of linguistic human rights, exemplifying what linguistic justice is and how it might be achieved. Through explorations of ways in which linguistic human rights are understood in both national and international contexts, this innovative volume has a particular focus on the marginalized languages of minorities and Indigenous peoples, in industrialized countries and the Global South.

Go to the Wiley Online Library website to learn more, and check out Anderson and Daigneault’s contribution to this volume in Chapter 48: “Linguistic Human Rights, Living Tongues Institute for Endangered Languages, and the Rise of the Multilingual Internet.”
