Una Lengua Para Un Mundo Sin Lengua

Year: 2002

Type: article

Abstract: A clear interdependence between a globalised economy and a global language cannot be \ndenied. Nevertheless, it is not frequent to find these two aspects dealt with at the same level. \nLinguists, historians, economists, politicians etc. approach the subject from their «own» \npoint of view with just peripheral mentions of what concerns «the other’s field». The economic power of the United States has favored the present world supremacy of English \nagainst which rivalries like Spanish have little to do. The mere survival of the most direct \nexpression of the diverse cultures is conditioned by their secondary or null role in a world \nthat moves towards a unique form of thought that instrumentalizes a language to cut others
