The second edition addresses new theoretical and empirical developments since its initial publication, including the burgeoning influence of globalization and the relentless rise of English as the current world language. Mays broad position, however, remains largely unchanged. He argues that the causes of many of the languagebased conflicts in the world today still lie with the nationstate and its preoccupation with establishing a 'common' language and culture via mass education. The solution, he suggests, is to rethink nationstates in more culturally and linguistically plural ways while avoiding, at the same time, essentializing the languageidentity link. This edition, like the first, adopts a wide interdisciplinary framework, drawing on sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, sociology, political theory, education and law. It also includes new discussions of cosmopolitanism, globalization, the role of English, and language and mobility, highlighting the ongoing difficulties faced by minority language speakers in the world today.
