Abstract
The complexity of Québécois society presents a particularly significant framework through which one may approach questions concerning multilingualism and multiculturalism as they apply to education. In 2002, the Ministry’s Educational Policy Statement begins by declaring: « In a pluralistic society such as ours, schools bring people together. Our schools must not only help students develop a feeling of belonging to the community but also teach them how to « live together » (Ministère de l’éducation, 2002). For a long time, different waves of immigration have in fact introduced a new element into Québécois society, one capable of rupturing the dichotomy between Francophones and Anglophones: allophones.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
