La Voluntat de comunicar-se en una segona llengua: la presa de decisions individual en un context social

Authors

  • Peter D. MacIntyre

Abstract

This text of Peter MacIntyre presents his views on willingness to communicate focusing in the individual decision making of each speaker in a given social context. This decision arrives at the end of a process in time, where a variety of factors have an important influence: the WTC model shows their interrelations in an integrated way. In social contexts like those of Nova Scotia or Catalonia, the sum of individual decisions to communicate, respectively, in Gaelic or Catalan, have a direct effect on the future of these languages.
