One of the original stated aims of Language and Liberation was to explain the language question to those involved in the fight to free the populations of the Creole speaking Caribbean from external political and economic control. The other was to provide a historical, political and socioeconomic context within which supposedly value-free official language policies and practices could be understood. Both these aims remain relevant twenty years later. The context within which official language policy operates has, however, become more complex, both internationally and within the Caribbean. The new chapter written specially for this updated edition addresses this.
