Comments

The seminar will address the following issues: the constellation of languages in Europe - the historical dimension and recent developments; the development of language policy and language education policy in the context of European integration - the Council of Europe and the European Union; key instruments of the Council of Europe and the EU; linguistic challenges posed by trans-European mobility, migration, internationalisation and globalisation, and by EU policies; regional and minority languages, and dialects; the linguistic dimension of the creation of the European Higher Education Area / European Research Area, and of the internationalisation of higher education and research in Europe; policy development at different levels, for different sectors and for different types of organisations. The main focus of the seminar will be on the analysis of policy documents and of policy-driven initiatives, especially on documents published and initiatives taken in recent years. The seminar will be conducted in English, but participants will also be able to express themselves in German. Participants are expected to prepare a brief oral presentation, introducing one of the seminar themes, and, linked to this, a seminar paper (15-20 pages).
