Migrant Languages in the Public Space

A Case Study from Northern Ireland

von Philip McDermott
This interdisciplinary book details the status of migrant languages in a particular European region. The author draws on fieldwork conducted in Northern Ireland to contextualise the challenges faced at both state and community level in a linguistically diverse public space. Such debates on multiculturalism are particularly relevant in a region which has witnessed increased levels of immigration in the period of „normalisation“ that has followed the end of the Northern Ireland conflict.
