About the Book

Changing socio-political landscapes, the dynamics of ‘glocalisation’, among other factors, are spawning new policy attitudes towards multilingualism, and again putting language planning (LP) on the map – in a manner reminiscent of the 1960s and 1970s. With respect to terminology, this book suggests that to be relevant and sustainable, current LP would have to define its mission as the deregulation of access to specialised knowledge, and correspondingly be founded on substantially different methods and theoretical bases: epistemology and ontology of specialised domains; research on language for special purposes (LSP) and collocations; corpus linguistics; knowledge extraction and knowledge representation; language engineering technologies. On the one hand, the book recommends itself to decision-makers and language planning project managers. On the other, it should be of interest to students of LSP and terminology, language planning, concept and object theories, knowledge modelling, artificial intelligence, text and corpus management, translation process analysis, text and African linguistics.

Die Westfälisch-Lippische Universitätsgesellschaft hat Antia's Arbeit mit dem Dissertationspreis 1999 gewürdigt. The International Information Centre for Terminology — Infoterm hat ihm den 'International Infoterm Award for Outstanding Achievement in Applied Research and Development in the Field of Terminology' für das Jahr 1999 verliehen. Ein Buch, mit dem sich jeder Terminologe auseinandersetzen sollte.
