Strategies linguistiques et integrations internationales/regionales en France et Moldavie

The architecture of the world is constantly evolving. Realists used to give states a central role in the organization of international relations, but the 20th century has transformed the international arena into an international scene. Today's world is becoming more connected, and international actors are no longer limited to states. Paradoxically, while globalization is driving the harmonization of values and standards and the development of multilingualism, it is also strengthening regional cooperation and asserting identities. Thus, the resources mobilized by actors to assert their existence on the international scene are numerous such as the learning of modern languages. A political tool as well as a means of communication, languages represent a system of values and norms for individuals and states. We therefore propose to look at the evolution of modern language learning policies in France and the Republic of Moldova, if the two states have implemented differentiated strategies under the influence of multilingualism. France has long been "protectionist" towards French, but over the last few decades has reinforced the importance of learning English. For Moldova, the learning of modern languages, including French and English, represents a means of international or regional integrations.
