Le multilinguisme dans les organisations internationales
Mots. Les langages du politique
Multilingualism in international organisations
The choice of multilingualism in international organisations involves constant – and costly – translation and interpreting work, the political repercussions of which are still too often underestimated. This dossier aims to shed light on the political repercussions of this work, from a multidisciplinary perspective. The contributions that it brings together confirm, if confirmation were needed, that translation is never neutral and that English – in its globalised version – tends to impose itself despite proclamations of principle in favour of linguistic diversity. But their contribution goes beyond this observation. Whether they fall under language science or political science, they very clearly show how internationalised English – and with it a system of values and domination – becomes hegemonic, by focusing not so much on the most obvious expressions of this process as on the mechanisms that are but little visible because they are routine and/or depoliticised.

Invoking "the Republic", calling oneself a "Republican"... Does the term Republic still have any meaning? The texts in this issue show that the polysemy of the word is less a reflection of the evanescence of its meaning than of a polymorphous debate on the definition of citizenship in a world marked by deepening individualism.

This dossier focuses on the framing of migratory phenomena as a crisis, with a particular focus on what discourses of crisis do to reception. It brings together contributions from researchers from various disciplines, who investigate both the discursive constructions of the migration crisis and the crisis of discourses on migration.

This dossier brings together contributions dealing with words at work. Coming from political science, sociology, anthropology or information and communication sciences, the authors examine the way in which the neo-managerial discourse is conveyed and imposed by private and public sector executives and the way in which employees respond to it.

Group formation in part happens through discourses that contribute to invent, sustain and transform our imagination of society. This collection of articles proposes an account of the discursive construction of groups, which is wider than the question of naming social or political groups.
Henri Boyer, Chloé Gaboriaux
This dossier aims to study a recent phenomenon that is usually called "soundbites".
In the wake of pioneer work on that multifaceted subject, we have opted for a transdisciplinary approach that includes the sciences of language and communication as well as social sciences.
