The workshop will explore the key issues of language politics in European democracies, contrasting these with the Canadian experience. It will focus on how political integration can be achieved in the context of institutional settings committed to maintaining linguistic diversity. The workshop sessions are structured along three major thematic lines: 1) Linguistic diversity, nation-building and nationalism, 2) Language, transnational integration, and Europeanization, and 3) Language and the politics of immigration.
