These case studies from Bhutan, China, India, and Nepal show how people in the Himalayas talk borders into existence, and also how those borders speak to them and their identities. These 'talking borders' exist in a world where state borders are contested, and which is being irrevocably transformed by rapid social and economic change. This book offers a new perspective on this dynamic region by centring language, and in doing so, also offers new ways of thinking about how borders and language influence each other.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gerald Roche\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9463725040\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789463725040\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Amsterdam University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Gerald Roche","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44069322227967,"sku":"9789463725040","price":131.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_480a5379-b812-4f44-9977-5869e11571be.jpg?v=1685424073","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bordering-tibetan-languages-gerald-roche-9789463725040","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
