Description

Explore the complex landscape of linguistic shifts in China with this academic study from Routledge. With over 40 different ethnic minority groups totaling more than 100 million people, China's approach to language has undergone significant changes. This book examines the transition from policies that accommodated minority languages to current integrationist strategies. Readers will gain a deep understanding of how these policy shifts affect the education system, where instruction in Mandarin Chinese is increasingly replacing minority language instruction. This text provides a detailed assessment of the current state of indigenous and minority language policy and its connection to literacy and social harmony. It is an essential resource for those studying comparative development and policy in Asia, offering a clear look at how language instruction impacts diverse populations.
