The Right to a Name. The State We’re In, a radio show produced by Radio Netherlands, addresses the them of “names” in relationship to human rights, including a huge number of children who do not officially have a name, the vast number of people named “Wang” in China, and “skin names” in Australia. They’re also airing a program about language rights; although the audio has not been posted yet, there is a good text summary.
