505			_a"Language issues have been and promise to continue to be at the heart of national political life in Canada. The results of governmental language policy play a crucial role in determining the unity of the country. However, despite its importance, language policy is often difficult to understand because it is part of a complicated political terrain where numerous policies intersect. Canadian Language Policies in Comparative Perspective presents a long-required assessment of the field and utilizes a widely recognized comparative method that makes this volume the most systematic study of language issues available.
505			_aCapturing the dynamism of Canadian language policies, contributors analyze and compare the effects, histories, and features of language policies as they have been enacted and implemented by provincial and federal governments. Their findings have significant implications for domestic and international language policy. An important study of a social and political issue that has immediate local, national, and international consequences, Canadian Language Policies in Comparative Perspective assembles knowledgeable authorities on language policy to provide a comprehensive synthesis of its consequences."
