Language Planning and Social Change by Robert L Cooper. First edition 1989. Softcover. 216 pp.

Language Planning and Social Change

A very relevant book for woken-up people about how language is being manipulated to make certain unpalatable things more acceptable, to achieve political ends, to attain control by the few over the many, to pacify certain groups, and to create new elites or maintain old ones. Although written long before today's woke ideology and climate madness, this book gives an excellent background on how to spot language manipulation.

First edition published 1989 by Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, USA, and Melbourne, Australia.
