[Linganth] New Book on Language and Politics in Indonesia

[Aurora Donzelli]

Dear friends and colleagues,
In case you are interested, my new book “One Word or Two: Language and Politics in the Toraja highlands of Indonesia” has just been released by NUS Press. I attach below a flyer with a discount code.
Based on a long-term fieldwork in the Toraja highlands of Sulawesi, the book explores how people forge forms of collective belonging to a distinctive locality through the exchange of spoken words, WhatsApp messages, ritual gifts of pigs and buffaloes and discusses contemporary forms of cosmopolitan indigeneity and shifting power relations between centers and peripheries in one of the world’s most linguistically diverse countries.
More details and a preview can be found at:

With best wishes,

Aurora
