Overview

This book is a study of the growth of human society from the perspective of language. It argues that when humans begin to use language for communication, they develop and use media. Media extend the distance of communication, allowing humans to interact with one another on a large scale and form a large society. Language leads to the dissolution of primitive society and the formation of civilized society. From the formation of civilisation, humans began to group themselves by way of ethnicity or nationality. They have made themselves a people, a community, a nation and a state. They then govern their state through various types of linguistic presentations: appellation, constitution, election, and representation - all linguistic mechanisms that contribute to the building of the state and its system of governance. The spirit of the state is then built through the development of history, philosophy, literature and art, religion and law. Language has preset the whole process of the growth of the state. This book can be a reference book of political science, political linguistics or political philosophy, to be read by university students and professors.
