Viac o knihe

The book explores the tension between Shanghai's rise as a global city and the declining use of the Shanghai dialect, highlighting the impact of state-sponsored social exclusion on local identity. It reveals how the endangerment of this vernacular not only silences a crucial aspect of the community's voice but also threatens the linguistic foundation that shapes the region's cultural heritage.
