When Size Doesn't Count: A Comparative Account of Language Endangerment in Australia and Pakistan
No full textAbstract
Is there a correlation between the resilience of a minority language and the size of its speaker community when that community is colonized by people who speak a different language? In addressing this question in our report, we explore shared experiences of the “colonization” of our languages as Indigenous people from Pakistan and Australia. Adnan Bhatti is Saraiki from the Multan area, Punjab, Pakistan, and Jakelin Troy is Ngarigu from the New South Wales side of the Snowy Mountains region in southeastern Australia. Both pre-1947 India, from which Pakistan was partitioned, and Australia were invaded by the British and subsequently colonized. Troy's language succumbed to English in the nineteenth century, and Bhatti's language faces being overwhelmed by Urdu and, to a lesser degree, by English as well. Population migrations and government policies have adversely affected the capacity of Indigenous peoples to thrive in the use of our languages. This report draws on our larger research project to compare the experiences of minority language speakers in Australia and Pakistan. In reflecting on our own experiences, we consider government policies and a range of community, education, business, health, and media initiatives that variously support or hinder efforts to maintain or revive the use of our languages.1</jats:p

Jakelin Troy (1960-)
No full textJakelin Troy’s The Sydney Language, first published in 1993, and later in a 2019 edition,
is a book of words—“lost” words. The author describes the Sydney language as
“extinct.”1 That word grates for many Indigenous people because it echoes doomed
race theories of the late nineteenth century and “last of” narratives that endure in
popular fiction. Language extinction, however, is a real and imminent force, hence
the United Nations’ urgency in declaring the International Decade of Indigenous
Languages 2022–2032. Embodying knowledge, collective identity, ways of thinking,
and a wealth of intangible heritage, a people’s native language epitomizes and transmits
their culture.2 In this book, Troy, a Ngarigu woman from the Snowy Mountains
High Country of New South Wales and a Professor at the University of Sydney,
demonstrates her profound commitment to the preservation of threatened languages

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
