Abstract
Italy recognizes and protects twelve minority languages. In the European Union there are twenty-four official languages. Is it possible to govern so many languages? Is there a limit to linguistic rights? This paper aims to answer these questions by looking at the proposals made by the Group of Experts set up to advise the European Commission on the contribution of multilingualism to Intercultural Dialogue.
