Abstract

A model of language-group interaction as modified by deliberate language acquisition planning (LAP) is given. The behavior of the model while LAP measures are in force (First Regime or Regime 1) is distinguished from the longer term when natural interaction is re-established (Second Regime or Regime 2). Both regimes are subclassified into scenarios according to inherent long-term behavior, and an attempt is made to classify real-world examples of LAP and natural interaction in terms of these. Conclusions are drawn regarding the assumptions of LAP, and the use of the model in the allocation of resources to LAP initiatives.
