| Summary |
"This book series covers the entire African continent on a national scale in order to provide a holistic overview of the multilingualism and the language policies. Due to its country-by-country structure all African countries receive the same attention and space. For usability purposes, the countries are grouped in the different regional economic communities (RECs): - Volume 1: SADC (16 countries) - Volume 2: EAC & ECCAS (12 countries) - Volume 3: ECOWAS (15 countries) - Volume 4: AMU & COMESA & West Sahara (12 countries) These volumes of the series focus primarily on language-in-education policies (LiEP). The book series aims to describe and analyse the diverse challenges of LiEP for the entire African continent using a standard structure for each chapter to ensure readability. Book chapters will be mainly contributed by authors based in Africa"-- Provided by publisher |
