Applying Sociology:
• For a long time, people in the United States demanded
conformity to a single language.
• Recent decades have seen challenges to this pattern of forced
obedience to the dominant ideology.
• Attackers of bilingual programs often ignore the fact that
bilingual education programs may have beneficial results.
Initiating Policy:
• Bilingualism has policy implications in two areas:
• Efforts to maintain language purity.
• Programs to enhance bilingual education.
• Nations vary dramatically in their tolerance for a variety of
languages.
• In the United States, repeated efforts have been made to
declare English as the nation’s official language.
• Public concern over a potential decline in the use of English
appears to be overblown, as most immigrants quickly become
fluent and abandon their mother tongue.
