摘要

马来西亚华人极力通过华文学校(华文独立中学与国民型华文中学)来维护他们的语言与文化,表现出强烈的华人认同。本文采用认同管理模型与语言管理模型,以槟城州4 所华文中学为例,讨论马来西亚的华人认同与华文学校华语管理之间的关系,分析这些华校如何通过语言管理(主要是华语)来强化华人认同。数据采集主要通过面对面的访谈,涉及的访谈对象包括学校的管理层、教师与学生。研究结果显示两类学校的华人认同与针对华语的语言规划措施密切相关,而且教师与学生对于华语的重要性以及华语对华人认同的重要性的看法基本一致。此外,华文学校通过华语而实现的华人认同的管理与马来西亚华人社会的认同规范也是一致的。

Abstract

Chinese Malaysians have thrived to maintain their language and culture through Chinese schools including both Independent Chinese Secondary Schools and National-type Chinese Secondary Schools, which is an indication of strong Chinese identity. This paper adopts the models of identity management and language management to discuss the relationship between Chinese identity, the management of Mandarin, and Chinese education, taking four Chinese schools in Penang as examples. The main purpose is to analyze how these Chinese schools strengthen students’ Chinese identity through language management (mainly Mandarin). The results of interviews administered among school authorities, teachers and students show that the Chinese identity in both types of schools is closely associated with language planning towards Mandarin. Moreover, teachers and students hold similar views towards the importance of Mandarin and its significance to Chinese identity. Besides, the management of Chinese identity through Mandarin by Chinese schools complies with the norm of identity in Malaysian Chinese community.
