This encyclopedia is the first publication of this kind appearing in Russia. This is a general description of all of the "official" languages which have gained the status of national ones in the course of the language reform carried out in 1990-95. Each of the 29 languages described in the book is characterized both from a sociolinguistic and purely linguistic point of view. Appended are a number of legal acts concerning language: "The Law on the Languages of the peoples of the Russian Federation", and the corresponding laws of the republics—members of the federation.
