Czy możliwa jest sprawiedliwość językowa?


Abstrakt

The author considers the question of who has power in the globalizing world over the “international” language, what benefits do they derive from that, who profits, who loses? According to the calculations of François Grin of the University of Geneva, because of the domination of the English language in the European Union, Great Britain gains annually 17 milliard euros. For comparison, the whole budget for higher education in Poland in 2009 was 15 milliard zloties, that is one quarter of that sum. Linguistic relationships, including those in Europe are a clear example of injustice as it favours native English speakers. As a result, are language and culture categories of social justice, the first principle of a modern state? Why not consider the development of a type of Esperanto?
