法国的边疆少数民族及其“自我管理”模式

The National Minorities in the French Border Areas and Their"Self-Management"Model

法国边疆少数民族的传统区域在法国大革命以后被拆分并改,体现民族称谓的地名长时间销声匿迹。到第三共和国时期,少数民族语言也在法语的统治性、排他性权威下几近消失。在全国各地反抗巴黎集权的普遍抗争中,法国政府最终于20世纪80年代启动地方分权改革,少数民族地区与全国其他地区一道,由此获得了宪法承认的、有限的“自我管理”权利。

After the French Revolution,the traditional areas of the national minorities in French border areas were broken up and changed,as a result,their names disappeared for a long time.By the third Republic,minority languages had almost disappeared under the dominant and exclusive authority of French.In a nationwide revolt against the Paris authority,the French government finally launched decentralization reforms in the 1980s.Minority areas,along with the rest of the country,thus gained the limited right of"self-management"recognized by the Constitution.
