In our ‘modern’ societies, language planning confronts a situation wherein human rights have become inclusive in theory but remain exclusive in practice, often deploying languages or language varieties as pretexts for exclusion. Language planning should promote a dialectic between inclusive theories and inclusive practices within its own projects and within its own discourse, and should deconstruct exclusive ones. This precept is demonstrated with discourse samples, including ones concerning ‘International English’ and ‘World Englishes’.
