[lojban] Off-topic: sources on auxlangs and conlangs

I'm considering theming my English course next semester on invented 
languages and invention in language, so it would cover all varieties of 
constructed languages (including Lojban, of course) and also creative 
change in languages (anything from pidgins to l3375P34|<). I'm currently 
looking round for academic or semi-academic (e.g. "popular science") 
texts available online which I can use. I'd be grateful for any 
suggestions, especially in the following areas:

- the politics of auxlangs, especially Esperanto;
- linguistic objections to constructed languages (e.g. the hard-line 
Chomskyan view);
- studies of change in constructed languages, especially studies of 
native speakers of constructed languages.
