Abstract

The applied branch of linguistics known as language planning (LP) is traditionally seen as a way to provide governments with policy-level guidance regarding the choice of official and national languages. This paper examines LP as a concern of both political and sociolinguists in the context of a post-apartheid South Africa. For this context, I suggest a politically minimal approach to language planning.
