اهمیت آزادی و برابری زبان‌ها در ایران فارسی 1404

The Importance of Linguistic Freedom and Equality in Iran, written by Bahram Rahmani, examines the status of mother tongues and their fundamental role in shaping individual and social identity. Adopting an analytical, rights-based approach, the author explores issues such as education in one’s mother tongue, linguistic equality, and the freedom of all languages spoken in Iran. He argues that these questions should not be framed through the lens of dominant or subordinate nationalisms, but rather understood as basic human and civic rights.

Drawing on the experiences of multilingual societies, the book analyzes the positive outcomes of bilingual and multilingual education, including the strengthening of social cohesion, the reduction of discrimination, and the expansion of social participation. Rahmani emphasizes that privileging one language or nationality over others not only fails to promote social unity, but actively produces inequality and cultural exclusion.

The Importance of Linguistic Freedom and Equality in Iran is a thought-provoking work for readers interested in language issues, cultural rights, education, identity, and social justice. It also serves as a valuable resource for researchers, civil society activists, and readers concerned with the prospects of a democratic and multilingual future.
