Simultaneous Identities

Language, Education, and the Nepali Nation

Beschreibung

This book illustrates that social actors in minority language education in Nepal made simultaneous claims to more than one social identity by discursively positioning 'ethnic identity' as 'national identity'. By arguing for an analytical necessity to adopt relational approach, it aims to complicate the neat compartmentalisation of identities.
