Diversity Realized Putting the Walk with the Talk for Diversity in the Legal Profession is a call to action, from an educator and a member of the bar.

This book engages critically with debates about linguistic continuity and cultural survival in relation to Europe’s authochthonous minorities. Focusing on Scotland’s Gaels and Lusatia’s Sorbs/Wends, it analyses and evaluates competing assumptions, rationales and ideologies which have shaped previous and present language revitalisation initiatives and that continue to pose dilemmas to language planners and politicians in the UK, Germany and beyond.
