Concept information

PREFERRED TERM

multilingualism  

DEFINITION(S)

  • Presence and use of more than one language to disseminate research rather than relying on a single language for scholarly communication.

NOTE

  • Definition inspired by the Helsinki Initiative. https://www.helsinki-initiative.org/

SCOPE NOTE(S)

  • This could include translating individual publications into more than one language, but it also entails a publishing ecosystem where publishing takes place in a variety of languages even when the works published are not translations of one another (e.g. one journal article may be published in Finnish, another in Polish, and another in French).
