Annotation

This study examines linguistic landscapes, public visibility enactment and presence of non-majority linguistic groups in EU member states. Non-majority linguistic groups obtain power, visibility and presence via the introduction of bilingual or multilingual signposts on roads, streets, squares, and public buildings in towns and cities where a given linguistic group represents a notable population part.
