About Multilingualism In India

Multilingualism in India is a challenging and stimulating study of the nature and structure of multilingualism in the Indian subcontinent. India, with 1652 mother tongues, between two hundred and seven hundred languages belonging to four language families, written in ten major script systems and a host of minor ones represents multilingualism unparalleled in the democratric world. With four thousand castes and communities and equal number of religious faiths and cults, its multilingualism matches its pluriculturalism. The articles in this book discuss sociology, psychology, pedagogy and demographic aspects of multilingualism. They bring out some of the salient problems of literacy in a multilingual world and give a language planning perspective. The volume ends with a discussion on language and social identity. In a multilingual country like India many languages are mutually supportive and complement one another. Identities are layered and larger identities encompass the smaller ones without absorbing them. This social document will appeal equally to linguists, social scientist and educators, while offering new insights to all those interested in differences among social groups and how communication in different settings unite them. It will enable the reader to enter into the classroom, a tribal home, and contexts in which multilingual discourses take place and understand the deeply ingrained language habits, values, and attitudes.
