At the intersection of language, conflict, and security
While conflicts involving language are always intertwined with other issues such as ethnic and racial identity,
religion, and democratic participation, the importance of the linguistic dimension is often underestimated, along with the
difficulties of achieving effective, just and sustainable solutions through language legislation and policy. Language policies
have political and social consequences; they can reinforce or diffuse conflicts and social unrest between language groups, they
can accelerate language loss or facilitate language revitalization, and they can be instruments of inclusion or exclusion
affecting the stability and security of the society. Against this background, this Special Issue aims to shed light on how
language diversity impacts conflict and security. In particular, the SI will look at how issues revolving around language
diversity interplay with security concerns and which dynamics trigger processes of securitization of language issues. How to
balance language diversity to prevent conflict and promote security of linguistic majorities and minorities? How to reconcile the
demands for linguistic diversity and political stability and unity? What is the role of international organizations in these
processes? And how can the risk of the essentialization of linguistic communities and minority cultures leading to the division of
societies into us-versus-them antagonisms thereby be overcome?
