โœฆ Synopsis

In this article we examine the theoretical and conceptual history of Language Planning and Policy (LPP) and situate the ethnography of language policy within the historical trajectory of the field.

We review that piece, focusing on the three major epochs that Ricento identifies, and then examine developments within LPP over the past decade, including theoretical and empirical contributions from ethnographies of language policy.
