Fonts d'informació sobre política i planificació lingüístiques a Internet

Resum

For some years now, the generalization of web pages has allowed us to have access to huge volumes of information, which obliges us to establish selection systems in order to channel the information (general and specific navigators) and maximize its usefulness. As far as politics and language planning are concerned, the Internet has offered a wide range of Web sites. This selection of 30 web addresses was arrived at through a series of consultations carried out in January, 2000 and through the updates from April of the same year. These addresses present different projects undertaken by universities, public research centers, international institutions and private associations. The following data are provided for each web site: name of the opening page, person in charge, publications (magazines, annual reports), date of publication and/or latest updating, languages of the contents, description, links and commentaries. Following are some of the highlights of the information which may be found on these pages: statistics on minority languages, language policies, languages of the European Community, the situation of language minorities in Russia, recording in minority languages, discussion groups, courses in lesser taught languages, and legislation. Most of the pages may be viewed in majority languages, but viewing is also possible in minority languages such as Basque, Catalan, Gaelic, Breton or Frisian.
