From Linguistic Heritage To Connected Environments: Language As An Analyzer Of Social Change, Nadia Kaaouas, Taoufik Ait Bouchgour

Faits de Langue et Société (FLS)

This issue of Faits de Langue et Société examines the links between communication, education, and interculturality through a double lens: linguistic heritage and digital mediation. Drawing on diverse settings and complementary approaches, it shows how language practices shape the circulation of meaning, the transmission of knowledge, and the construction of belonging in societies marked by linguistic plurality and socio-technical change.

Building An Empire-The Life And Legacy Of Dr. A.G. Gaston, Solymar Ortiz

ETDs from 2020-2029

The life, work, and legacy of Dr. A.G. Gaston demonstrate the significance of commemorating key civil rights activists through the establishment of historical institutions. Gaston was a pivotal leader in Birmingham’s Civil Rights Movement, and as the first Black millionaire in Alabama, he dedicated his life to generating wealth and uplifting his community. Stemming from humble beginnings, he was raised by formerly enslaved grandparents in a former plantation town. His rough upbringing encompassed a fight against racial injustice, an intense work ethic, and a passion for entrepreneurship. That passion allowed him to build his businesses from the ground up and …


Atlanta '96: The Games And The South, Beau Bowden Jan 2026

Atlanta '96: The Games And The South, Beau Bowden

ETDs from 2020-2029

The Centennial Olympiad, hosted by Atlanta, Georgia, in 1996, demonstrated key principles of the postsouthern mindset, a movement typically associated with literary criticism that, if applied to historiographic methods, offers valuable insights into how Atlantans confronted competing identities of being a modern international city hailed as the Black Mecca, and a city forever linked to the Lost Cause, Ku Klux Klan, and racial inequality. During the Opening Ceremonies, specifically, Olympic organizers curated a celebration touting the city’s and region’s multiculturalism and corporate might, as described by the Atlanta Committee for the Olympics (ACOG), the body responsible for organizing the games, …

Reagan, Bush, Gorbachev, And The End Of The Cold War, Joshua Caleb Teasley Jan 2026

Reagan, Bush, Gorbachev, And The End Of The Cold War, Joshua Caleb Teasley

ETDs from 2020-2029

This work addresses key questions relating to the end of the Cold War. Contemporary wisdom suggests that Ronald Reagan’s policies beat the Soviet Union into submission, but this is not the case. Reagan’s initial policies were antagonistic towards the Soviet Union and his devotion to SDI later harmed his ability to establish relations with Michail Gorbachev later on. This thesis argues that it was George H.W. Bush, rather than Reagan, who was the more influential and effective President when dealing with the Soviet Union. Bush’s diplomacy was less idealized and more realistic than Reagan’s. Additionally, Bush was able to successfully …

Hispanic & Latinx (H&L) family caregivers of people living with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRDs) experience high levels of stress that can negatively impact their mental health and may turn to social networking sites (SNS, commonly known as ‘social media’) for coping or social support.

The primary purpose of the present study was to characterize patterns of SNS use among H&L ADRD family caregivers and examine the associations between SNS use and caregivers’ mental health and well-being.

The Role Of Diasporic Sites In The Reappropriation And Dissemination Of Judeo-Moroccan Culture, Hind El Baz Jan 2026

The Role Of Diasporic Sites In The Reappropriation And Dissemination Of Judeo-Moroccan Culture, Hind El Baz

Faits de Langue et Société (FLS)

Jews existed in Morocco before Islam, and even before Christianity, which gave way to it. The long cohabitation between Jews and Muslims gave rise to cultural practices that often had nothing specifically Jewish or Muslim; they therefore constituted a privileged meeting place between the two populations. Although the said Jewishness is nowadays very much reduced to the point of being doomed to disappear, two millennia of history still remain a memory; its echo still resounds in the uprooted souls of emigrants. It resounds in their music and song, in their folklore and rituals, in their celebration of the privileged moments …

The Socio-Didactics Of Linguistic Representations Of The Amazigh Language, Ahmed Bououd Jan 2026

The Socio-Didactics Of Linguistic Representations Of The Amazigh Language, Ahmed Bououd

Faits de Langue et Société (FLS)

This study adopts a socio-didactic approach to analyze the influence of social representations on the learning of the Amazigh language within Moroccan universities. It aims to define the position of Amazigh within Morocco’s current multilingual landscape and to determine how the images (positive or negative) formed by students impact their motivation and desire for linguistic appropriation. The research addresses key questions: How is Amazigh perceived by learners—as an identity-based, official, or purely symbolic language? Furthermore, what is their level of motivation when faced with the competition of other languages such as Arabic, French, and English? This research is based on …


Translation Of Media Terminology: Strategies And Problems, Ouafae Benzina Jan 2026

Translation Of Media Terminology: Strategies And Problems, Ouafae Benzina

Faits de Langue et Société (FLS)

This study is a reflection on the problem of translating media terminology. This is an area in which profusion of terminology is considerably given its accelerated development. Indeed, the progress that characterizes this field leads to the appearance of neologisms whose transposition into French is most often an extremely complicated task. Technological advances and the speed with which they develop have created a huge need for terminology. We, therefore, propose in our contribution to deal with strategies for translating media terminology and its problems

Rethinking “Moroccan Personality”: Historical Grounding And Interpretation In Ṭayeb Biad’S Al-Šakhṣiyya Al-Maġribiyya: TaʾṢīl Wa-TaʾWīl, Taoufik Ait Bouchgour Jan 2026

Rethinking “Moroccan Personality”: Historical Grounding And Interpretation In Ṭayeb Biad’S Al-Šakhṣiyya Al-Maġribiyya: TaʾṢīl Wa-TaʾWīl, Taoufik Ait Bouchgour

Faits de Langue et Société (FLS)

This article offers an academic discussion of Ṭayyib Biyāḍ’s al-Šakhṣiyya al-Maġribiyya: Taʾṣīl wa-Taʾwīl (Tīṭwān, Editions Bāb al-Ḥikma, 2024), arguing that the book reframes a highly politicized identity question into a historical problem open to critical inquiry. The discussion highlights three main analytical operators: (1) space (al-insān wa-al-maǧāl) as a key to understanding circulation, borders, and social recomposition; (2) the longue durée as a safeguard against essentializing “personality”; and (3) the use of historical thresholds—baṣmat al-islām (the imprint of Islam) and ṣadmat al-ḥadāṯa (the shock of modernity)—together with the notion of al-izdiwāǧiyya (duality) to interpret contemporary tensions. In dialogue with classic …

Making Meaning: Representations, Learning, And Contemporary Imaginaries, Nadia Kaaouas, Taoufik Ait Bouchgour Jan 2026

Making Meaning: Representations, Learning, And Contemporary Imaginaries, Nadia Kaaouas, Taoufik Ait Bouchgour

Faits de Langue et Société (FLS)

This issue explores meaning-making in contemporary societies by foregrounding representations, learning, and cultural imaginaries. Across digital media, cultural practices (including orally transmitted traditions), literary studies, pedagogy, and linguistics, the contributions show how oral, written, and visual forms of expression shape social relations, construct identities, and rework inherited cultural patterns. Literature is approached as a space for self-reinvention; schooling as a laboratory for skills and learner motivation; and linguistic analysis as an essential tool for the circulation of knowledge. Complementarily, heritage-oriented perspectives emphasize that the viability of cultural practices depends on ongoing transmission across generations.


Semiological Analysis Of Visual Representations Of The Female Body On Instagram, Hassan Baha Jan 2026

Semiological Analysis Of Visual Representations Of The Female Body On Instagram, Hassan Baha

Faits de Langue et Société (FLS)

On digital social networks and Instagram in particular, female influencers mainly use images to communicate with their audience. A form of visual communication that allows them to enter a process of digital self-presentation. On Instagram, the female influencers in our sample are depicted as perfect, slim body and attractive. These images can impact women's perception of their own bodies and self-worth. A visual/virtual representation that can encourage women to seek an unrealistic physical perfection maintaining, in order to achieve this ideal, a set of stereotypes that persist in the social imaginary. In this present project, we will study the images …
