Sue Wright is Research Professor at the University of Portsmouth, UK. She is co-editor of Sociolinguistica and the Language and Globalization book series. She is the author of numerous publications on the linguistic dimension of nation building, globalisation, democracy and migration and on the linguistic effects of technological developments in communication.

Review :
“The intended readership of the book is broad, and may include sociolinguists, diachronic linguistics researchers, general language researchers, and anyone who shows an interest in investigations into language problems, language policy, and language planning. … the book remains a great contribution to the area of language policy and language planning and deserves my wholehearted recommendation.” (Haoda Feng, Language in Society, Vol. 48 (2), April, 2019)
