The Politics of Language, Discourse, and Identity in the Philippines
- Quezon City University of the Philippines Press 2007
- xxvi, 262 p.
This volume appeals to scholars from different fields in the ncial sciences and the humanities. From language as a formal system of sounds and signs to discourse as a systemic encoder of meaning and ideology, the essays give us a refreshing range of theoretical and social angles from where we can view the interconnections of language, discourse, identity, and society. This volume is a welcome response to the need for inter- and multi-disciplinary approaches to the central questions of power and nieaning-making.
