Klappentext
"Nationalism in the Vernacular illuminates the relationship between orality and nationalist politics. In doing so, it provides a new angle to the understanding of nationalism by looking at the popular support and participation of ordinary people in the construction of Mizo nationalism-in short, the vernacularization of nationalism. The book examines this process of vernacularization at two levels: first, the process of creating a vernacular language to express nationalist ideas and, second, the irrepressibility of the oral against the Indian state's violent response to the nationalist movement. Drawing from multiple sources, the book-through the rich oral narratives and archival material, including government and media reports-shows how Mizos have remained active agents in asserting and claiming their rights to define ideas of nationalism in their own terms by making them distinctively Mizo"--![Roluah Puia: Nationalism in the Vernacular, Buch](https://media1.jpc.de/image/w468/front/0/9781009346078.jpg)
