Title
Les relations entre communautés linguistiques en contexte scolaire et communautaire : regards croisés sur Montréal et Bruxelles
Abstract
The authors compare the role of community and school milieus through relationships between the linguistic communities of Montreal and Brussels. Although these two linguistic contexts differ in many ways, the authors argue that they share two characteristics, which suggest that each of these communities could learn from the experience they developed in parallel – a context of the ambiguity of ethnic dominance and a linguistically divided school system. The authors examine the connections in the school and community milieus between French- and English-speaking Montrealers and between young French-speaking and Dutch-speaking students. They conclude that the impact this intercommunity contact has on representations and attitudes brings out questions which, in examining these two contexts, reveals possibilities for complimentary and comparative research.
