[Les] aménageurs linguistiques de même que les activistes de la langue peuvent difficilement ignorer les enjeux du paysage linguistique, non seulement comme outil de promotion et de renversement des transferts linguistiques, mais aussi comme un autre front sur lequel combattre pour la consolidation de la vitalité de leur propre groupe linguistique dans un environnement multilingue.
