Language policy A language policy is not a purely institutional one to facilitate operations within a particular organization but one that must take into consideration the social, political and cultural circumstances outside of it Source: Jones I.P., Askew L., Meeting the Language Challenges of NATO Operations. Policy, Practice and Professionalization, Palgrave Macmillan 2014
Language policy Language and language policy is imbricated in all aspects of social identity and social change. Language is the medium by and through which individuals define their own identities and, in the process, assess and ascribe the identities of others. It is often these differences in identities that lead to conflicts in which language may play an important role. Source: Ricento T.

Language security The process of globalization and geopolitical transformations “added new elements to national security and gave rise to non-traditional security, in which economics and cultural security gained increasing attention. It is a system where security and non-security issues interrelate to each other and mutual dependence and interactions among various aspects of the system are commonplace” Source: Han Yuan, Culture and Security: A Strategy for China, Paths International Ltd., Reading 2016
