Samenvatting

The introduction is split into three parts. In the first, we provide some background for the book, provide key definitions and reflections on minoritized languages and diaspora languages, and identify overarching themes in the book. In the second, we provide a summary overview of each of the 12 chapters, mentioning the languages investigated, the methods used, and the main findings. Finally, in the third part we reflect on the scope of the book itself and conclude with remarks on multilingualism and minoritization, positing that monolingualism should not be considered the default or status quo - quite the opposite, in fact. The research here suggests that fighting againt monolingualism as an increasing trend involves not just scientific work, but also social activism.
