Пълно описание

Modern globalization rewards some languages with extraordinary influence while reducing others to local survival. Access to universities, scientific publishing, international business, and digital technology increasingly depends on fluency in a small number of dominant global languages. Communication became economic infrastructure.This account investigates the political economy of linguistic dominance in the modern world. English and other globally privileged languages gained institutional power through colonial history, financial systems, and technological expansion. Academic journals, multinational corporations, and digital platforms reinforced these hierarchies by defining which forms of communication carried professional legitimacy.The book also examines how technological systems accelerate language inequality. Search engines, translation software, and artificial intelligence models overwhelmingly prioritize dominant languages, reducing visibility for smaller linguistic communities. As younger generations migrate toward economically useful languages, regional dialects often decline rapidly within postcolonial societies already shaped by uneven development.The result is a portrait of language not simply as culture, but as access to mobility, income, and participation in global systems of knowledge.
