Villes et politiques urbaines au Canada et aux Etats-Unis

L'analyse de l'évolution de la ville nord-américaine, surtout depuis les années 1960, permet d'identifier les maux actuels, d'étudier les solutions envisageables et d'évaluer les enjeux sociaux, économiques, urbanistiques et politiques. La perspective comparative a été volontairement privilégiée car elle permet de mieux dégager la spécificité de la ville canadienne. La comparaison est essentiellement centrée sur le Canada et les États-Unis mais n'exclut pas quelques allusions au modèle britannique. Trois avenues disciplinaires ont été privilégiées, celle qui relève du politique, celle qui relève du sociologique et celle qui a trait aux disciplines liées à l'étude et ...

Promoting Canadian Studies Abroad

  • Publisher: Springer

This volume examines the history and current state of Canadian studies in a number of countries and regions across the world, including Canada's major trading partners. From the mid-1980s until 2012, Canadian studies was seen as an important tool of soft power, increasing awareness of Canadian culture, institutions and history. The abrupt termination in 2012 of the Canadian government's financial support for these activities triggered a debate that is still ongoing about the benefits that may have flowed from this support and whether the decision should be reversed. The contributors to this book focus on the process whereby Canadian studies became institutionalized in their respective countries and on the balance between what might be described as Canadian studies for its own sake versus Canadian studies as a deliberate instrument of cultural diplomacy.

Social Lives in Language--sociolinguistics and Multilingual Speech Communities

This volume offers a synthetic approach to language variation and language ideologies in multilingual communities. Although the vast majority of the world s speech communities are multilingual, much of sociolinguistics ignores this internal diversity. This volume fills this gap, investigating social and linguistic dimensions of variation and change in multilingual communities. Drawing on research in a wide range of countries (Canada, USA, South Africa, Australia, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu), it explores: connections between the fields of creolistics, language/dialect contact, and language acquisition; how the study of variation and change, particularly in cases of additive bilingualism, is central to understanding social and linguistic issues in multilingual communities; how changing language ideologies and changing demographics influence language choice and/or language policy, and the pivotal place of multilingualism in enacting social power and authority, and a rich array of new empirical findings on the dynamics of multilingual speech communities.
