Ideological Directions in Welsh Language Policy

24/7/12
The Welsh Government’s plan to ‘create a bilingual Wales’ is ambitious - aiming for significant increases in Welsh use across Wales, a country with no Welsh monolinguals, and including areas where everyday use of Welsh has become negligible.
This paper examines ideological orientations in three Welsh language policy documents - 'texts' which are informed and contoured by overarching national and international legislation. Discourse historical analysis (a form of critical discourse analysis) is used to weigh up their ideological orientations.
