In Defence of the Standard Language

Ranko Matasović

Sažetak

This paper defends the main postulates of traditional standardology (chiefly derived from
the works of the Prague School) against recent criticism (Kordić 2010, Starčević, Kapović
i Šarić 2019). It is argued that certain normativistic principles are based on reasonable and
widely held beliefs that standard languages are tightly connected with national identity (at
least for some nations), and that communication in standard languages should be efficient
and economical.
