Abstract
This talk is intended to explore the relationship between language and ethnicity based on available data from the societal life of recent years in both China and other countries. It will look into the key issues involved from three perspectives, namely, (1) language and ethnic identity, (2) language and nationalism, and (3) language and ethnic conflict.
本報告擬採用近年來中國境內和境外的相關材料，聯繫現實生活中出現的相關語言問題，從語言與民族認同、語言與民族主義、語言與民族衝突這三個視角，探討語言與民族的關係。
