Reviews
This is a remarkable monograph. Zentz has managed to paint a picture of language life in contemporary multilingual Indonesia while showing us just how it in many ways reflects the ideological effects of historical events, some long past and others less so., Just brilliant. Zentz's analysis is admirably nuanced, fresh and challenging. Her insight compels us to radically reconsider the familiar notions of social identity, institutionalised power, and the politics of languaging in a world dominated by English., Statehood, Scale and Hierarchy is highly recommended to scholars working on language policy and planning, the role of English in postcolonial states, and the relation between discourses and practices around named languages., Zentz's "Statehood, Scale and Hierarchy: History, Language and Identity" is an exceptionally insightful ethnographic study exploring the tension between postcoloniality, nationalism and globalisation and its impacts on linguistic patterns in Central Java and Indonesia.

Synopsis
Against the background of language and nation formation in Indonesia, this book demonstrates how language planning is inseparable from the broader actions of the state, and how postcolonial nationalism and globalization have had profound implications for language use and state actions to control it., Against the background of language and nation formation in Indonesia, this book demonstrates how language planning is inseparable from the broader actions of the state, and how postcolonial nationalism and globalization have had profound implications for language use and state actions to control it. Using language planners' texts, national and regional policy statements and the discussions of university English majors, it explores the borders of what can be defined as Indonesian, Javanese and English languages, and how this is informed by ideologies of language and nationalism in contemporary Indonesia. The tensions played out in the book between the ideologically perceived languages around which policies are built and the realities of linguistic performance and the resources of the individual are echoed across the globe, making this book crucial reading for anyone interested in the interplay of language planning and language use.
