In connection with significant changes in the life of society and the state in recent years, the issues of language policy have again become relevant. The need to respond to new challenges launched the processes of language planning, at the core of which was the process of developing the Concept of the state language policy, which is essentially a stage of policy formation. An important milestone in this process is the adjustment of bureaucratic and academic approaches to policy making. The analysis of the problems that arose in this case is of not only practical, but also theoretical interest, since it not only characterizes specific Russian problems, but also reveals general trends in the formation of language policy and allows us to consider the topical problem of the central role of the state given the - 120 -
plurality of subjects of language policy. In this article, based on the analysis of documents and speeches of officials, participant observation and personal experience of participating in the practice of language policy, I analyze discourses and communicative practices in the process of adjusting bureaucratic and academic discourses when developing drafts of the Concept of Language Policy. It seems to me that despite the existence of significant differences in discourses and practices, agreement can be achieved, since the disagreements are rooted in attitudes that are not mutually exclusive but largely complementary to each other.
