La francophonie, du local à l'international
Pour comprendre le système local des identités concurrentes, le citoyen
du monde francophone bénéficie d'un atout enviable : la comparaison
directe avec d'autres systèmes que rend possible sans médiation le partage
de la langue française. Bien plus, cette langue commune favorise des
liens culturels qui, plus ou moins profonds selon les cas, tissent entre
les pays de la Francophonie sinon une communauté sociologique, du moins
une communauté intellectuelle autorisant la migration des appellations
identitaires (et de leur contenu d'origine dans une certaine mesure
seulement). Le Québec a ainsi largement informé l'actuelle problématique
du "multiculturalisme" dans les pays francophones d'Europe.
cmt: Only too proud that my native Québec is mentioned by Belgians as
a'catalyst' for such multicultural issues. Highly informative.

cmt: A new, revised version of The Economist's best-selling style
guide is now online. It gives general advice on writing, points out
common errors and clichés, and offers guidance on consistent use of
punctuation, abbreviations and capital letters. It's also rather amusing-and
an invaluable companion for everyone who wants to communicate with the
clarity, style and precision for which The Economist is renowned. However,
someone already noticed that in the one full sentence that appears on
the main frame on this page, they break their own rule (which informs,
that defines)!
