More about the book

The study explores the pivotal role of language in fostering national unity, examining its interplay with territory, religion, race, and collective memory. It analyzes how different countries and ethnic groups define their identity through language, highlighting the distinct ways English and French are utilized by various nations despite shared linguistic roots. The work questions whether language genuinely creates a cohesive community or if a national language is merely a reflection of ideological constructs.
