In Regimes of Language, ten leading linguistic anthropologists
integrate two often segregated domains: politics (without language)
and language (without politics). Their essays contribute to an
understanding of the role of language ideologies and discursive
practices in state formation, nationalism, and the maintenance of
ethnic groups, on the one hand, and in the creation of national,
ethnic, and professional identities, on the other. Moving beyond a
preoccupation with ideologies of cultural "others," the volume
includes reflexive analyses of European language philosophy and
historical linguistics, US academic ideologies of language,
political discourses by US journalists and elite image advisors,
and the impact of Christian missionaries on indigenous peoples in
the Papua New Guinea highlands.
