Abstract

This article proposes a discussion on language policies related to the maintenance of the use of Polish immigration language in Itaiópolis - Santa Catarina, which had meant immigration of this ethnic group in order to discuss the relationship between language policies in vivo and in vitro (CALVET, 2007), and the relationship that can be established between language and identity. For this, views of community members, taken in this research as language policies agents, are presented. We emphasize that the majority of participants is linked to any project aimed at the maintenance of language and immigration culture, among which we highlight two projects, the first is a Catholic Church’s project that aims to offer Polish lessons for the community and the second is developed at a state school which aims to provide opportunities for students to get in touch with the language and Polish culture through contact with native speakers of Poland. As a result, we emphasize that it was revealed that the spheres of in vivo administration and in vitro relate quite markedly. In addition, in relation to the identity issue, we realize that this can be considered the main force behind these agents of language policies.
