Summary, in English

The article is a presentation of the basic activities of the Swedish language board during the years 1987-1998 when I was its president. New possibilities and demands opened up with the development of computer technology. At the end of the 80ies I became aware of the possible linguistic effects of globalization upon national languages like Swedish and questions of national language policy were focussed by the board.
