Abstract:
According to international standards, the official language of a nation state represents an element of national security, as well as the symbolism of the state, along with the flag, coat of arms, anthem and other national symbols. Language is the guarantor of a company's functionality. The current reality demonstrates the increasing degree of state involvement in the most diverse processes: social, cultural, economic, educational, etc. The language policy of a state is represented by a set of laws, rules and guidelines adopted by the state authorities in relation to the language or languages existing or used on the territory of that country. This includes the adoption of an official language, determines its learning, the status of minority languages as well as the attitude of reporting and protecting the language against the influence of foreign cultures. In this vein, language has become for the political domain of a state an object, resource and means of control. Through language policies, adopted as administrative measures, the State administers linguistic pluralism. UDC: 811.135.1:342.31(478). JEL: F52, I21, I25, P36.
