Bilingualism and Biculturalism in the Basque Country.

Balerdi, Felix Etxeberria

Educational Review, v49 n2 p141-49 Jun 1997

The Basque Country in Spain has seen a resurgence in the Basque language (Euskara) and support for bilingualism and bilingual education. Two-thirds of students choose to learn in Euskara and fewer than one-third in Spanish. Schools using Euskara as the language of instruction are achieving better results. (SK)
