This book deals with the tension between a strategy of language maintenance (protecting and reinforcing the language where it is still spoken by community members) and a strategy of language revitalization (opening up access to the language to all interested people and encouraging new domains of its use). The case study presented concerns a grammar school in Upper Lusatia, which hosts the coexistence of a community of Upper Sorbian-speakers and a group of German native speakers who are learning Upper Sorbian at school. The tensions between these two groups studying at the same school are presented in this book against the background of various language strategies, practices and ideologies. The conflict of interests between the "traditional" community which perceives itself as the "guardians" of the minority language and its potential new speakers is played off on different levels by policy-makers and may be read through different levels of language policy and planning

Research in developed countries is often considered as a means to pave the way towards sustainable development in different areas of the society including science and technology, the economy, governance and security. Researchers in developing countries rarely have the opportunity to use their indigenous languages to design, plan and conduct research. Nor do they communicate in their indigenous languages to share their insights and learnings from other parts of the world with colleagues or students. Utilising the languages that researchers, students and teachers, policymakers, the community, and others interested in research understand better can help to generate new knowledge embedded in local realities where sustainable development needs to take root. That is why this book is in Kinyarwanda. The authors hope that writing this book in Kinyarwanda will increase research capacity in the humanities and social sciences in Rwanda and in the region. And that it will increase interaction between all key stakeholders in the planning and conducting of research as well as in analysing, monitoring and evaluating the research process and its outputs.] - Mu bihugu byakataje mu majyambere, usanga ubushakashatsi ari itara rimurikira ibikorwa by'amajyambere kandi bukaba n'umuyoboro w'iterambere rirambye haba mu bukungu, ubumenyi n'ikoranabuhanga, imibereho myiza y'abaturage, imiyoborere y'igihugu, umutekano n'ibindi.

Verlagswerbung: "Als Soldat der Reserve war es mir eine Ehre, meinem Land zu dienen. Selbst, wenn die Gefahr zum ständigen Begleiter wird. Der Tod ist für mich kein Unbekannter. In allen meinen Einsätzen wurde ich täglich damit konfrontiert, doch wenn die Situation eintritt und Freunde betroffen sind, kann man den Eigenschutz, den man um seine Seele aufgebaut hat, komplett vergessen. Die Trauer überwältigt alle Vorsätze. Die Zeit in Afghanistan prägte mich in einer tief menschlichen Weise. Je länger ich mich in diesem weit entfernten Teil der Welt befand, desto tiefer wurde das Verständnis über die Kultur der Menschen im Land. Neue Sichtweisen auf ein Land, das in den Medien nur als Krisengebiet betrachte wird. Ich habe aber auch die Schönheit gesehen und Freunde gefunden."
