    Open Linguistics 2017; 3: 145–156 Research Article Open Access Klara Bilić Meštrić*, Lucija Šimičić Language Orientations and the Sustainability of Arbanasi Language in Croatia – A Case of Linguistic Injustice1 DOI 10.1515/opli-2017-0008 Received October 22, 2016; accepted March 1, 2017 Abstract: Despite numerous positive aspects of the global development of language-as-right orientation, we argue that its application is rooted in methodological nationalism, i.e. the idea of society being equal to a nation- state (Chernilo 2006), and the monoglot ideology based on the idea of one proper version of a historically and politically privileged dialect carrying the status of a language. This dominant preconception of social phenomena thus leaves many varieties in a legislative vacuum. As a consequence, language rights, often in the form of more or less mandatory legal instruments, concern only a (politically established) few. When this institutional inadequacy is paired with the existing orders of indexicality, then these varieties face marginalisation processes that render language use even more unsustainable. To address the issue of language sustainability, we analyse the language-as-right, language-as-resource and language-as-problem orientations in Croatia on the case of the Arbanasi, a community of descendants of Catholic albanophones who settled in the periphery of Zadar in the 18th century and whose group identity is marked by significant language loss. We analyse how speakers and community members themselves perceive marginalisation processes, especially concerning linguistic (in)justice that stems from the policies that hinder sustainability of Arbanasi language use in the long run. Keywords: language sustainability, language orientations, language policy and planning, Arbanasi 1 Introduction Languages never operate independently of power relations (Bourdieu 2005), so the question we pose is in what contexts certain languages are perceived more valuable than the others.

  • Languages in the European Information Society Croatian
    META-NET White Paper Series Languages in the European Information Society Croatian Early Release Edition META-FORUM 2011 27-28 June 2011 Budapest, Hungary The development of this white paper has been funded by the Seventh Framework Programme and the ICT Policy Support Programme of the European Commission under contracts T4ME (Grant Agreement 249119), CESAR (Grant Agreement 271022), METANET4U (Grant Agreement 270893) and META-NORD (Grant Agreement 270899). This white paper is for educators, journalists, politicians, language communities and others, who want to establish a truly multilingual Europe. This white paper is part of a series that promotes knowledge about language technology and its potential. The availability and use of language technology in Europe varies between languages. Conse- quently, the actions that are required to further support research and development of language technologies also differs for each language. The required actions depend on many factors, such as the complexity of a given language and the size of its community. META-NET, a European Commission Network of Excellence, has conducted an analysis of current language resources and technolo- gies. This analysis focused on the 23 official European languages as well as other important regional languages in Europe. The results of this analysis suggests that there are many significant research gaps for each language. A more detailed, expert analysis and as- sessment of the current situation will help maximise the impact of additional research and minimize any risks. META-NET consists of 44 research centres from 31 countries who are working with stakeholders from commercial businesses, gov- ernment agencies, industry, research organisations, software com- panies, technology providers and European universities.

  • The Formation of Croatian National Identity
    bellamy [22.5].jkt 21/8/03 4:43 pm Page 1 Europeinchange E K T C The formation of Croatian national identity ✭ This volume assesses the formation of Croatian national identity in the 1990s. It develops a novel framework that calls both primordialist and modernist approaches to nationalism and national identity into question before applying that framework to Croatia. In doing so it not only provides a new way of thinking about how national identity is formed and why it is so important but also closely examines 1990s Croatia in a unique way. An explanation of how Croatian national identity was formed in an abstract way by a historical narrative that traces centuries of yearning for a national state is given. The book goes on to show how the government, opposition parties, dissident intellectuals and diaspora change change groups offered alternative accounts of this narrative in order to The formation legitimise contemporary political programmes based on different visions of national identity. It then looks at how these debates were in manifested in social activities as diverse as football and religion, in of Croatian economics and language. ✭ This volume marks an important contribution to both the way we national identity bellamy study nationalism and national identity and our understanding of post-Yugoslav politics and society.

  • School of Slavonic and East European Studies
    4th Annual Socrates Kokkalis Graduate Student Workshop 8 - 9 February 2002 KOKKALIS PROGRAM on Southeastern and East-Central Europe PAPER TITLE: Balkan Language ‘Games’ and Poststructural Agency in Ethnic Identification Anthony London University College London, School of Slavonic and East European Studies Introduction There is a general consensus in Balkan literature that ethnicity has become the dominant mode of identification – a belief historically determined, retroactively rooted and prominently re-invoked in light of the internecine conflict the past decade. This is reflected in the process of international post-conflict intervention in the Balkans, which is failing towards a comprehensive understanding of the source of ethnic identity-claims in the region of the former Yugoslavia. The seemingly innate discrimination and therefore inexplicable source of ethnically based identity need be understood to engender comprehensive justice systems. Consequently, the core theme of this paper is to chart how ethnicity has become the focal point, indeed, how it epitomises identity politics, and to interrogate this foundation as the sole legitimate representation of ethnic identity-claims. It pursuit of this aim, this paper will examine how ethnic identification has come to embody identity and political community in the former Yugoslav context, implicitly by deconstructing positivist understandings, extrapolated within a poststructuralist milieu. If one is to overcome ethnic chauvinism, its fundamental and core components must first be understood. This paper examines the performative processes that represent identity at a given moment, and in so doing, seeks to interpret human behaviour to acknowledge the paradoxes evident in modern ethnic identity. The central argument of this paper consists of interrogating a poststructuralist explanation by way of linguistic ‘games’ to supplement the formative nature of ethnic membership.

The image was very complex. It varied from an extremely positive perception – in the fi rst centuries of the period under consideration – to clearly expressed negative perceptions and intolerance – that were most prominent during the revolutionary years 1848–1849, and most frequently, one can encounter a combination of positive and negative stereotypes existing in different ratios and with numerous transitional nuances. Keywords: image of Hungarians, Croatia, literature, journalism, Habsburg, Revo- lution of 1848 It is an ancient and wide-spread phenomenon that specifi c characteristics or even characters are attributed to different societies, nations, or races. In the course of the 19th century, such understanding was included in a comparative-historical paradigm that prevailed in the humanities. Perceptions of foreign peoples and countries – perceptions of Others – are a research topic in which interests and research methodology of different social sciences and humanities overlap.

  • Specialist Teachers' Education in Croatia
    Published on Eurydice (https://eacea.ec.europa.eu/national-policies/eurydice) Initial teacher education varies according to the education level at which prospective teachers are intending to work. Pre-school teachers, primary and secondary school teachers are educated according to educational level i.e. the age of children they work with. Thus, teachers working at pre- primary level, teachers working at primary level and those working at secondary level undergo different initial education. Initial teacher education usually lasts for five years. Teachers working at pre-primary level are called odgajatelji. Those working at primary level (from grade 1-4) are called učitelji razredne nastave (class teachers), lower secondary level (from grade 4-8) are called učitelji predmetne nastave (primary school subject teachers), and those working in secondary schools are called nastavnici (subject specialists). The first four grades include so-called class teaching, and from fifth to eight grade curriculum is implemented by means of so-called subject teaching. Class teaching is usually conducted by one teacher (teaching several subjects), while in subject teaching each subject is taught by a specialized teacher. Teachers who work with children with different disabilities are educated on the Faculty of Education and Rehabilitation Sciences. Both in pre-Bologna studies (that lasted for four years) and in present ones (lasting 5 years – 3 +2) first year students can choose between three courses of study: speech pathology/therapy, social pedagogy and educational rehabilitation. After completed studies, depending on the cycle, graduate students obtain the title of master of education and rehabilitation (with an indication of the course of study).
