The central focus of each chapter is language policy and how it accomplishes-or fails to accomplish-the task of maintaining national unity in the face of linguistic diversity. Included among the nations considered are examples of postcolonial cultures, as well as nations that have sheltered linguistic minorities within their borders throughout their history, countries fragmented into tribal groups, and those divided by a plethora of local dialects.

How do governments in Africa make decisions about language? What does language have to do with state-building, and what impact might it have on democracy? This manuscript provides a longue durée explanation for policies toward language in Africa, taking the reader through colonial, independence, and contemporary periods. It explains the growing trend toward the use of multiple languages in education as result of new opportunities and incentives. The opportunities incorporate ideational relationships with former colonizers as well as the work of language NGOs on the ground. The incentives relate to the current requirements of democratic institutions, and the strategies leaders devise to win elections within these constraints. By contrasting the environment faced by African leaders with that faced by European state-builders, it explains the weakness of education and limited spread of standard languages on the continent. The work combines constructivist understanding about changing preferences with realist insights about the strategies leaders employ to maintain power.

Unlike other multi-ethnic nations, such as Myanmar and India, where official language policy has sparked bloody clashes, Thailand has maintained relative stability despite its eighty languages. In this study of the relations among politics, geography, and language, William A. Smalley shows how Thailand has maintained national unity through an elaborate social and linguistic hierarchy. Smalley contends that because the people of Thailand perceive their social hierarchy as the normal order, Standard Thai, spoken by members of the higher levels of society, prevails as the uncontested national language. By examining the hierarchy of Thailand's diverse languages and dialects in light of Thai history, education, culture, and religion, Smalley shows how Thailand has been able to keep its many ethnic groups at peace. Linguistic Diversity and National Unity explores the intricate relationship between language and power and the ways in which social and linguistic rank can be used to perpetuate order.

This book introduces the background of China’s issue of nationality from the very beginning. Throughout the country’s history, all the nationalities that lived and prospered on Chinese land created a pattern of cultural diversity within national unity through their interaction and integration. The formation of this pattern is due not only to the geographical fact that China covers a broad expanse on the Asian continent but also to the historical fact that it is home to disparate and ancient human heritages, and to culturally diverse historical sources.The book’s five chapters explain the evolution of the CPC’s policy towards nationalities. At the time of the PRC’s founding, the Common Program (in essence an interim Constitution) passed by the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Congress (which was composed of people from all sectors of society and all of China’s nationalities) not only declared that people of all China’s nationalities had equal rights, but also stipulated that: regional national autonomy would be practiced in all areas where minority nationalities were concentrated; that all nationalities had the right to develop their native languages and culture and to maintain or reform their customs and religious beliefs; and also mandated that people’s governments support the development of minority nationalities in the areas of politics, the economy, culture and education.In the final section, the book demonstrates that the subject of how /divthe CPC addresses nationality-related issues is a dynamic one that encompasses the past, present and future, and is simultaneously an answer, a process and a question./div

The Processes Of Democracy And Development Usually Tend To Generate New Tensions And Fresh Patterns Of Power Continually. In A Participatory Democracy Like Ours Committed To Planned Economic Development And Distributive Social Justice, Interregional And Inter-Communal, And Oftentimes Sectarian Rivalaries And Petry Jealousies For The Loaves And Fishes Of Office And Similar Other Advantages Are Inevitable. Likewise When Regional And Sub-Regional Forces Become More Articulate, Assertive And Sometimes Aggressive And Even Confrontationist, They Are Often Dubbed Anti-National And Their Demands Are Looked Upon As Constituting A Threat To National Unity And Integration By The Powers That Be. In The Context Of The Rise Of Non-Congress And Anti-Centre Forces In Parts Of India, Particularly In The Non-Hindi-States Of The South And Their Demands For Greater State Autonomy, The Editor Of This Book Organized Two All-India Inter-Disciplinary Seminars On (A) Democracy, Pluralism And Nation-Building And (B) Sub-Nationalism And National Integration. This Book Contains Selected Papers Presented At These Seminars And Others Specially Written For This Volume, Provides Theoretical Perspectives On The Problems Of Nation-Building And Focuses Attention On The Consequent Challenges And Encounters Facing The Establishment In Its Struggle To Maintain National Unity And Independence With Simultaneous Promotion Of Regional And Socio-Cultural Wedded To Autonomy Through A Democratic Set-Up Orderly Planned Economic Development And A Loose Federal Structure. An Outstanding Book For Academics And Planners Alike. A Practical Guide To Students And Researchers In Political Science.

Language in South Africa (LiSA) debates the role of language and language planning in the reconstruction, development and transformation of post-apartheid democratic South Africa. The 1996 constitution of South Africa is founded on the political philosophy of pluralism and is directed at promoting democratic values, equity and non-discrimination, human rights, national unity and the development of all the country’s communities. The question asked in LiSA is how language planning can contribute towards the attainment of these national ideals. Set against the language political realities of the country — the a-symmetric power relations between the languages; the striking differences in the structural; functional and symbolic adaptation of the official languages; and the many language-related problems in the country — it debates the role of language in state administration, national integration, educational development and economic development. The volume concludes with a discussion of language development and language management.
