Book Description
Le Canada est un pays bilingue depuis 1969. La charte canadienne des droits et libertés et la Loi sur les langues officielles reconnaissent toutes deux l’égalité du français et de l’anglais au fédéral, mais les provinces et les territoires sont très peu synchronisés dans le respect de cette égalité. Nul ne vit plus concrètement cette inégalité de fait du statut des deux langues officielles que les membres des communautés de langue officielle en situation minoritaire (CLOSM), à savoir un million de francophones vivant à l’extérieur du Québec et un nombre comparable de personnes dont l’anglais est la première langue officielle parlée dans cette province. Le livre que nous sommes heureux de présenter réunit des travaux de dix-neuf chercheurs qui analysent de façon éclairante de nombreux aspects du vécu en langue officielle minoritaire des membres des CLOSM à l’aide de données provenant de la vaste enquête sur la vitalité des minorités de langue officielle que Statistique Canada a menée à la suite du recensement de 2006. Ces analyses originales, qui complètent celles que Statistique Canada a déjà publiées, peignent d’abord un portrait global de chaque CLOSM, ensuite des descriptions plus particulières de la vie quotidienne dans une langue minoritaire officielle au Canada. Le livre soulève autant de questions qu’il donne de réponses sur la réalité de la dualité linguistique canadienne et invite chercheurs et intervenants à faire de nouvelles analyses et d’autres recherches en la matière.

Accessibility and Active Offer
Author: Marie Drolet

ISBN: 0776625659
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 377
Book Description
It is imperative that we train leaders who are able to intervene efficiently with service users and to support a better organization of the workplace. It is especially important to look at the many issues related to postsecondary training and human resources, such as recruiting and keeping these leading professionals. Accessibility and Active Offer thus combines theory and empirical data to help future professionals understand the workplace issues of accessibility and active offer of minority-language services. This English-language adaptation of Accessibilité et offre active features an additional chapter by Richard Bourhis on issues specific to Anglophone communities in Québec. This multidisciplinary collective work is the first to unite researchers in health, social work, sociology, political science, public administration, law and education, in order to gain more thorough knowledge of linguistic issues in health and social services, as well as of active offer of French-language services. Published in English.

Cultural Heritage and International Law
Author: Evelyne Lagrange
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319787896
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
This book explores the objects, means and ends of international cultural heritage protection. It starts from a broad conception of cultural heritage that encompasses both tangible property, such as museum objects or buildings, and intangible heritage, such as languages and traditions. Cultural heritage thus defined is protected by various legal regimes, including the law of armed conflicts, UNESCO Conventions and international criminal law. With a view to strengthening international protection, the authors analyze existing regimes and elaborate innovative concepts, such as blue helmets of culture and safe havens for endangered cultural heritage. Finally, the ends of international protection come to the fore, and the authors address possible conflicts between protecting cultural diversity and wishes to strengthen cultural identity.

Language and Identity Politics

Pages : 228
Book Description
In an increasingly multicultural world, the relationship between language and identity remains a complicated and often fraught subject for most societies. The growing political salience of questions relating to language is evident not only in the expanded implementation of new policies and legislation, but also in heated public debates about national unity, collective identities, and the rights of linguistic minorities. By taking a comprehensive approach that considers both the inclusive and exclusive dimensions of linguistic identity across Europe and North America, the studies assembled here provide a sophisticated look at one of the global era’s defining political dynamics.
