The Fading Ethnicity

About this book

Amitava DasFew pages for You The book centers on analyzing the extent and patterns of linguistic transformation and cultural erosion within tribal communities in West Bengal. This analysis is grounded in a comprehensive examination involving field surveys and data gathered from both governmental and non-governmental sources, notably the 2011 census. The results of the field survey underscore the critical necessity for reassessing policies related to the first language of tribal communities and the Family Language Policy (FLP). FLP refers to a deliberate and transparent approach to planning that specifically addresses language usage within families, particularly in domestic contexts. Consequently, it reflects broader societal perspectives and beliefs concerning languages and parenting. Publication Institute of Language Studies and Research [] Find more information below.
