Background
![Page 3: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Research on
language contact and language conflict language policy and planning ‚old‘ European language minorities challenges which EU faces in terms of
language diversity
member state level (domestic level < de Swaan) level of ‚transnational civil society‘ (< de Swaan)

big challenge
![Page 5: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Big challenge …
“… c’est d’avoir à penser et à organiser la coexistence des langues, à concevoir et à maîtriser leur interaction” (North 2009: 5).
![Page 6: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
In other words: there is a need to think about …
the language repertoires that people (ought to) develop (cf. literature dealing with the question of ‘legitimate language repertoires’)
the weight, the role and the distribution of various languages in (different domains of) society
the ‘inclusive’ character of multilingualism
![Page 7: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
These LPP-related challenges are not new, yet ...
difficult to give ‘one size fits all’-answers
≠ political realities ≠ ecologies of language ≠ ways of looking at / interpreting language
diversity
![Page 8: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The micro- and the macro-lens
![Page 9: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Classical subdivision: micro ‚vs.‘ macro
number of speakers involved in interaction
space of interaction
period of time of interaction
![Page 10: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Alternative approach (in view of a discussion of language diversity at the level of society)
impression of ‚prototypical‘ micro and macro views on ...
society language / language distribution language and power
![Page 11: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
micro macro ?
![Page 12: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Society
micro macro
individual bigger picture
communities of practice, networks, institutions
‚pre-fabricated‘ compartmentalization (spatial and social entities)
![Page 13: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
micro stresses complexity of society (more complex than pre-fabricated categories allow us to think)
micro super/hyperdiversity micro transnationalism (away from
‚methodical nationalism‘) micro stresses permeability of borders
macro reject / rethink categories?
![Page 14: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Example:
‚old‘ vs.‘ ‚new‘ language minority
![Page 15: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
reject problem
political reality contribution to policy development new name = ?
rethink challenge
which features ? ‚floating‘ weight of such ‚features‘ as ancestry,
language, self-categorisation, social organization (power)
![Page 16: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
rethink possible way-out
dust off macro-literature that stresses heterogeneity / multi-layeredness of language groups
integrate micro-perspectives in research find ways to integrate micro-perspectives in
contributions to policy literature systematic research in line with ideas expressed in ...
Declaration of Oegstgeest (2000) the work of the Mercator Network + ‚Language Rich
Europe‘ the work of Guus Extra & Durk Gorter ...

Language
micro macro
variation as a starting point ‚standard forms‘ of language
![Page 18: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
micro in most extreme form: denial of ‚languages‘
micro translanguaging
macro rejection of ‚languages‘?
![Page 19: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
the ‚language question‘
interesting < relates to questions of autonomy, heteronomy, Abstand and Ausbau
interesting < dynamic approach to linguistic reality
problematic < translanguaging is also about ‚languages‘
problematic < denial / questionning of ‚language categories‘ vs. political way of seeing things / language policy
![Page 20: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
relevant < part of daily (mainly urban?) reality
relevance worthwhile to consider in models of (multilingual) education
Towards a combination of ideas on
CLIL/EMILE didactique intégrée plurilingual education
translanguaging as a ‚competence‘ or as a ‚topic‘ ? What about the intergenerational transmission of
translanguaging?
![Page 21: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Language use
micro macro
heterogeneity heteroglossia, translanguaging, ...
homogeneity ± stable forms of diglossia, ...
![Page 22: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
micro heteroglossia
macro challenge (stable) diglossia as policy goal?
![Page 23: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Challenge (e.g. related to the public sphere):
how to shift from „one domain + one/two languages“ „one domain + multilingualism“?
Languages involved (next to official language/s) ?
Type of multilingualism ?
How to ‚facilitate‘ multilingualism ?
![Page 24: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
confronted with a lack of research
if research focus on application of rules (legal approach) rather than on possible positive contributions to knowledge about ‚living diversity‘ (if research on ‚living diversity‘ lack of comparative studies that would allow for generalizations (cf. Blommaert/Rampton 2011)
![Page 25: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Language and power
micro macro
language as a means to construct power relations ; agency
language as a secondary symbol (related to status, prestige < institutionalization, legitimization)
language governmentality language policy goals
![Page 26: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
micro focus on governmentality
macro combine emerging focus on language policy evaluation with governmentality ?
![Page 27: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Governmentality (cf. Pennycook 2006)
How do decisions about languages and language forms across a diverse range of institutions (law, education, medicine, printing) and through a diverse range of instruments (books, regulations, exams, articles, corrections) regulate the language use, thought and action of different people, groups and organizations?
away from focus on intentional and centralized strategies of government authorities
focus is on multiplicity of ways in which practices of governance may be realized
![Page 28: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
synergies of ideas on governmentality + language policy evaluation language policy feedback adaptation / amelioration of language policy based on (best) practices
way of gradually adapting language policy from below (?)
![Page 29: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
micro discursive negotiation of power relations
macro greater consideration of discursive strategies related to legitimization of ‚multilingualism‘ / ‚linguistic diversity‘
calls for a greater input from political science cf. work of Kenneth D. McRae (1970s-1990s)
![Page 30: LPP IN EUROPE: MACRO AND MICRO PERSPECTIVES Jeroen Darquennes.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56649eea5503460f94bfc057/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Emergence of ‚ethnography of language policy‘ which, according to Johnson and Ricento (2013: 14), can
illmuninates and inform various types of LPP illuminate and inform language policy
processes examine the link between various LPP players open up ideological spaces for creating
multilingual lnguage policies that promote social justice and sound educational practice
