L'inégalité et la discrimination sexuelles et linguistiques au Québec

Discrimination and inequality are equally defined by the authors by a long-linear model, and are applied to the distribution of occupations in a sample of French- and English-speaking newlyweds residing in Quebec in 1954, 1964 and 1974. They maintain that gender discrimination and gender inequality in the allocation of occupations is more important than linguistic discrimination and linguistic inequality. However, while linguistic inequality tended to favour Anglophones linearly on an ordinal scale of occupations, gender discrimination and gender inequality had a sinusoidal distribution on this scale so that women were at a disadvantage compared to men in terms of coupled occupations.
