The Language Movement in Bangladesh charts the Bangla Language Movement from a rhetorical perspective. The Language Movement in Bangladesh adds to scholarship around language rights and language ideologies with an examination of a politically explosive debate in a non-Western and postcolonial context.
When the British withdrew from the Indian subcontinent in 1947, there were conflicts over land, religion, power, and language. Rabbi investigates the translingual and comparative rhetorical facets of debates over state languages in the former territory of East Pakistan.
