The Linguistic Issue in Some European Bilingual Contexts: Some Final Considerations 330 $aTo say that multilingualism is the norm and monolingualism the exception has become a truism. In fact, the European Union is clearly committed to a multilingual Europe in which all its educational systems are advised to include two Community languages. It is in this context where this volume analyses the language use and attitudes of would-be teachers, as they will play a paramount role when it comes to keeping multilingualism as one of the key features of the European identity. There are four main reasons why this volume can make a contribution to this field of research. Firstly, it is a transnational study involving nine different bilingual states/areas which allows the reader to compare contexts that, despite sharing some similarities, do have their own peculiarities. Secondly, it considers not only the minority and majority languages, but also the different foreign languages. Thirdly, it relies on the same instrument and methodology. And last but not least, the participants will have an enormous influence on their different educational systems and on their students? linguistic perceptions. 410 0$aMultilingual Matters S. 606 $aBilingualism$zEurope 606 $aLanguage awareness$zEurope 606 $aMultilingualism$zEurope 615 0$aBilingualism 615 0$aLanguage awareness 615 0$aMultilingualism 676 $a404/.2094 686 $aHD 150$qSEPA$2rvk 701 $aHuguet$b Angel$01807889 701 $aLasagabaster$b David$f1967-$01807890 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910964071303321 996 $aMultilingualism in European bilingual contexts$94357878 997 $aUNINA
