Abstract

Finally, the last chapter brings out the role of the Assam Sahitya Sabha during the period of the crisis ridden 1960s language movement. It alleges the Assam Sahitya Sabha of being largely responsible for such movement that broke up Greater Assam and pushed away the tribal groups of the hill and plains from the mainstream Assamese society. Yet, the book is inspiring in that the merit of the work lies in the strong primary data, which has been used skillfully to interpret the issue of language movement of 1960. The authors attempted to cite facts from primary sources such as newspapers, government reports, and other sources. However, there are several parts where the book lacks an emphasis. While dealing with the issue of language problems in Assam, the authors fail to establish a clear link between language problem and illegal immigration. Furthermore, Sharma and Kalita’s 1960 Sonor Bhasha Andolan is an engrossing and well-written historical work, which will enrich the researcher’s curiosity as well as provide background for revisiting the language movement of 1960.

最后，最后一章提出了阿萨姆邦Sahitya Sabha在危机四伏的20世纪60年代语言运动期间的作用。它声称阿萨姆邦Sahitya Sabha对这种分裂大阿萨姆邦的运动负有主要责任，并将山区和平原的部落群体赶出了阿萨姆邦主流社会。然而，这本书的优点在于强有力的原始资料，它被巧妙地用于解释1960年的语言运动问题，这是令人鼓舞的。作者试图从报纸、政府报告和其他来源等第一手资料中引用事实。然而，书中有几个部分缺乏重点。在处理阿萨姆邦的语言问题时，作者未能在语言问题和非法移民之间建立明确的联系。此外，Sharma和Kalita的《1960年的Sonor Bhasha Andolan》是一本引人入胜、文笔优美的历史著作，它将丰富研究者的好奇心，并为重新审视1960年的语言运动提供背景。

期刊介绍： In the twenty-first century ethnic issues have assumed importance in many parts of the world. Until recently, questions of Asian ethnicity and identity have been treated in a balkanized fashion, with anthropologists, economists, historians, political scientists, sociologists and others publishing their studies in single-discipline journals. Asian Ethnicity provides a cross-disciplinary, international venue for the publication of well-researched articles about ethnic groups and ethnic relations in the half of the world where questions of ethnicity now loom largest. Asian Ethnicity covers any time period, although the greatest focus is expected to be on the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
