The Principles of Territoriality and Personality in the Solution of Linguistic Conflicts.

Nelde, Peter H.; And Others

Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, v13 n5 p387-406 1992

Examines the competing principles of territoriality and personality as key concepts in the provision of language-related services and rights in multilingual societies. Drawing on recent legislative and sociopolitical change in Belgium, Quebec, and Canada, the extent to which the adoption of such principles increases or neutralizes language-related conflict is examined.
