摘要

摘要 在灾害期间/灾后,语言交流(或缺乏语言交流)可能是一个生死攸关的问题,对于 "土著/部落、少数民族和少数语言和民族"(ITMs)来说尤其如此。灾害和语言研究发现,语言障碍至关重要,因为一些 ITM 无法理解基本的风险交流、疏散警告和恢复信息。在灾害情况下,有三种主要方法可以降低这些障碍:(1) 以多种语言形式发布警报和重要信息;(2) 使用双语/多语种翻译/口译员和自动翻译器;(3) 使用简化语言。然而,这种自上而下的方法是不够的,因为信息和传播技术人员需要的不仅仅是有选择的信息来应对逆境。在创伤事件发生后,了解情况、"谈论它 "和表达自己的感受这些基本的交流权利不应该成为讲多数民族语言的人理所当然的特权。灾难语言学关注的是 ITMs 所面临的独特的社会脆弱性,但其根本原因尚未得到妥善解决。本文根据我们的定性研究,探讨了日语意识形态在 2011 年东日本大地震和海啸中与 ITMs 的经历相关的作用。

Exploring the role of language ideology in disaster contexts: case study of the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami
Abstract During/after disasters, language communication (or the lack thereof) can be a matter of life or death, particularly for “Indigenous/Tribal, Minority and Minoritized languages and peoples” (ITMs). Disaster and language studies have identified language barriers as critical because some ITMs do not understand basic risk communication, evacuation warnings, and recovery information. There are three major approaches to lowering these barriers in disaster contexts: (1) disseminating warnings and critical information in multilingual formats; (2) using bi/multilingual translators/interpreters and automated translator; and (3) using simplified language(s). However, this top–down approach is insufficient because ITMs need more than just selective information to cope with adversities. The basic communication rights to know, “talk about it,” and express one’s feelings after a traumatic event should not be a taken-for-granted privilege for speakers of the majority languages. The root causes of disaster linguicism, which focuses on the unique social vulnerabilities confronted by ITMs, have not been properly addressed. Drawing from our qualitative research, this article explores the role of Japanese language ideology in relation to the experiences of ITMs in the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami.

期刊介绍: The International Journal of the Sociology of Language (IJSL) is dedicated to the development of the sociology of language as a truly international and interdisciplinary field in which various approaches – theoretical and empirical – supplement and complement each other, contributing thereby to the growth of language-related knowledge, applications, values and sensitivities. Five of the journal''s annual issues are topically focused, all of the articles in such issues being commissioned in advance, after acceptance of proposals. One annual issue is reserved for single articles on the sociology of language. Selected issues throughout the year also feature a contribution on small languages and small language communities.
