Language rights in the 2004 draft of the European Union Constitution
- Source: Language Problems and Language Planning, Volume 31, Issue 1, Jan 2007, p. 25 - 36
Abstract
The 2004 draft of the EU Constitution contains legal language defining the linguistic obligations of the EU and the language rights of its citizens, but the draft fails to achieve language justice for EU citizens who speak regional minority languages. These minority languages include Catalan, Basque, and Galician in Spain, Welsh in the UK, and others.
