This volume outlines a model of language that can be characterized as functionalist, usage-based, dynamic, and complex-adaptive. The core idea is that linguistic structure is not stable and uniform, but continually refreshed by the interaction between three components: usage, the communicative activities of speakers; conventionalization, the social processes triggered by these activities and feeding back into them; and entrenchment, the individual cognitive processes that are also linked to these activities in a feedback loop. Hans-Joerg Schmid explains how this multiple feedback system works by extending his Entrenchment-and-Conventionalization Model, showing how the linguistic system is created, sustained, and continually adapted by the ongoing interaction between usage, conventionalization, and entrenchment. Fulfilling the promise of usage-based accounts, the model explains how exactly usage is transformed into collective and individual grammar and how these two grammars in turn feed back into usage.0The book is exceptionally broad in scope, with insights from a wide range of linguistic subdisciplines. It provides a coherent account of the role of multiple factors that influence language structure, variation, and change, including frequency, economy, identity, multilingualism, and language contact.

"Convention was recognized as a major contribution to the subject and its significance has remained undiminished since its first publication in 1969. Lewis analyzes social conventions as regularities in the resolution of recurring coordination problems - situations characterized by interdependent decision processes in which common interests are at stake. Conventions are contrasted with other kinds of regularity, and conventions governing systems of communication are given special attention. This book is of central importance to philosophers, linguists, social scientists, legal theorists, and anyone interested in the role of convention in the function of social behavior and language."--Jacket.

The main reason why Latin America is a cultural diverse region is because of the indigenous peoples who inhabit it. That is why indigenous peoples' interests on their cultural property have to be taken into account when this matter is to be legally regulated in Latin American countries. In order to ascertain whether that has occurred, the book explores relevant legal instruments at the international and regional levels and compares national norms in some Latin American countries, particularly those concerning ownership. It concludes that recognition of indigenous interests in Latin American law on cultural property is still a pending task. Die Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Frage: Wie ist der Schutz von Kulturgütern in Lateinamerika rechtlich geregelt, und in welcher Weise werden indigene Kulturgüter innerhalb solcher Regelungen berücksichtigt? Die Frage besteht aus zwei Teilen. Der erste Teil betrifft eine vergleichende Analyse der geltenden Regelungen über den Schutz materieller Kulturgüter Lateinamerikas. Unterstrichen wird dabei ein Aspekt des Rechtsschutzes von Kulturgütern, nämlich die Regelung des Eigentums. Der zweite Teil der Frage, der sich auf die Berücksichtigung der materiellen Kulturgüter der indigenen Völker bezieht, wird bei der Untersuchung der verschiedenen Rechtsinstrumente beachtet. Dabei geht die Arbeit von der Annahme aus, dass die indigenen Völker ein Interesse an der Kontrolle der mit ihrer Kultur verbundenen Güter haben, welches von den Rechtsnormen in der Regel nicht in Betracht gezogen wird.
