Quote to reflect on Linguistic Policy for the 21st century
- On the 10th anniversary of the death of Txillardegi, the Txillardegi Reflection Center of the Telesforo Monzón laboratory, Jakinek and UEU have jointly organized the conference on linguistic policy for the 21st century, with the aim of clarifying and discussing what language policy we need in the face of the challenges of the 21st century. It will be held on 19 October in Eibar and the registration is open in the address www.ueu.eus.
Jardunaldien aurkezpenean, Urko Aiartza, Lorea Aguirre eta Kepa Sarasola.
Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.
The current model of normalization of the Basque Country shows signs of growth in most of the areas that cross the language: education, Euskaldunization of adults or normalization processes of public institutions, Euskaldunization of the world of work, cultural transmission or communication, among others. All of this directly affects the transmission and survival of the Basque Country, as indicated by the data on street use.
We need to discuss what language policy we need in the face of the challenges of the 21st century. Not to analyse whether or not we have done much, but to discuss and reach agreements on what we need. The aim of these days is to contribute to the debate that is going to take place in this country.

What Chivit said with Irulegi, does it have any reflection on language policies?
María Chivite’s speech in the presentation of Irulegi’s hand at the Palacio de Góngora de Aranguren has, to the surprise of many, been one of the most powerful and flagrant to underline the importance of the discovery of Aranzadi.

For all
As in Bill Murray, I have started to feel at the debates on linguistic policy – to those, ei, aber, do not go yet, give this article a chance – there is an approach, the issue is complicated by the opinions of both, the dialectic channels of Quinqui on Twitter.
