| Publisher Description: An examination of the nature of the linguistic transformation of Montreal and the role of public policy in promoting it. After tracing the politicization of the language question in the 1960s and 1970s, this work analyzes the impact of the three controversial language laws penacted by the Quebec provincial government between 1969 and 1977. |
