Summary/Abstract: Languages are the medium through which communication takes place in politics, commerce, academia, the media, technology and most aspects of life. Languages are, therefore, central to our international world, to globalization and the accelerating process of European unification. The aim of this study is to address multilingualism and bilingualism as universal norms, as societal rather than individual phenomena. The study will focus on the importance of acquiring competence in more than one language, the factors of cultural diversity and their role in the development of the society and the issue of multilingualism by addressing the questions of language policy, language use and language learning.
