Regionalism
Advertisements
उत्तर
- Regionalism arises when the feeling of affinity develops for a language and region, gradually becoming an identity consciousness.
- Here, people primarily focus on the interests and development of their region and believe they should have a claim to their area’s resources and employment opportunities.
- As a result, they take pride in their language, literature, traditions, history of social reform, and educational and cultural movements. This leads to the development of a ‘linguistic identity’.
- When such linguistic, regional, cultural and other identities connect, a strong feeling emerges: ‘regional consciousness’.
- This sometimes leads to the formation of independent political parties, pressure groups, or movements.
