dc.description.abstract | In a post-national South Africa, spaces are transforming to accommodate multilingualism and address structures of sociolinguistic isolationism and exclusion. In such a transformative society embracing multilingualism is an integral component of challenging the hierarchization of languages and redressing the vulnerabilities of historically marginalized speakers to contribute to social transformation. However, there has been an increase in social enclaves in certain South African communities, concomitantly less open to embracing linguistic diversity over the years. This thesis investigated one instance of linguistic isolation, namely an Afrikaner enclave that has organized itself around the affirmation of linguistic human rights. | en_US |
