Explores how the Francophone and Anglophone communities in Quebec have responded to the shift in power between them as a state- based nationalism has become established over the past quarter century. Laczko (sociology, U. of Ottawa) draws on public opinion survey data and theoretical literature dealing with language, ethnicity, nationalism, and social change to examine the restructuring of relations between the two communities, the acceptance by English-speakers of their minority status, and the behavior of French-speakers as the new socially and politically dominant group. Compares Quebec to other places where such shifts rarely occur without violence. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
