An Fallstudien sprachlichen Transfers ins Finnische, Lettische, Litauische und Islandische werden Aspekte sprachlicher Normierungstatigkeiten aufgezeigt. Die aus einer soziolinguistischen Konferenz zu dem Thema ausgewahlten Beitrage haben nicht die UEbersetzungswissenschaften zum Thema, sondern die Frage, wie kleinere Sprachkulturen die Herausforderungen der sprachlichen Identitatswahrung meistern, wenn ihre Sprachgemeinschaften im Gefolge der europaischen Mobilitat immer heterogener werden.

Different aspects of linguistic standardization are pointed out on the basis of case studies of linguistic transfers into Finnish, Latvian, Lithuanian and Icelandic. The sociolinguistic contributions selected from a conference do not merely deal with translation studies but with the question how smaller linguistic communities overcome the challenges of safeguarding their linguistic identity while becoming heterogeneous in the wake of European mobility.
