Abstract:
Les questions relatives à l’intégration des immigrés et de leurs descendants ne sont pas nouvelles dans la littérature économique. Celles-ci ont toutefois majoritairement été traitées du point de vue de l’efficacité économique de l’immigration ou des discriminations. L’assimilation culturelle revient, elle, régulièrement au cœur du débat public et en particulier au travers des notions d’identité nationale et culturelle. La théorie de l’identité est apparue en économie il y a une dizaine d’années et a permis d’améliorer la compréhension des décisions des individus lorsque ceux-ci se définissent

Abstract:
This paper examines the issue of cultural assimilation in terms of Romanianization and Magyarization from the angle of a historical ethnography conducted in the Transylvanian village of Ghimeş-Făget, Bacău. These two concepts are readings of social change based on the assumption that the deep social transformations that Transylvania experienced during the changes of rule in the region between Hungary and Romania were parallel to the implementation of deliberate strategies of assimilation. More than simple reforms, these social changes are considered to have created shifts in the population's l

Other studies have focused on the extent to which the firms are culturally integrated and its relation to cultural clashes.

 The integration of immigrants is a major source of social tension in multicultural cities. In Europe, the issue has become particularly contentious after the attacks of September 2001.

This thesis addresses the central question of why the course of integration remains largely problematic and difficult in cities that have become accustomed to diversity.

ABSTRACT Charles W. Chesnutt captures the essence of the Post Civil War period and gives examples of the assimilation process for African Americans into dominant white culture. In doing so, he shows the resistance of the dominant culture as well as the resilience of the African American culture. It is his belief that through literature he could encourage moral reform and eliminate racial discrimination. As an African American author who could pass for white, he is able to share his own experiences and to develop black characters who are ambitious and intelligent. As a result, he leaves behind

Subsequently, it was expected that, across a broad range of ethnicities, autonomous internalization of cultural norms would be associated with well-being. Furthermore, how multicultural individuals integrate their identities was also anticipated to impact on their well-being and their daily functioning. The present thesis is comprised of four studies.

The main policies analyzed in this thesis are the current (federal) policies regarding education, land ownership, and self-governance. Current means the policies that are in place and in effect today. This thesis also analyses past policies in order to create a foundation.

Perpetually struggling to assimilate into his native mountain culture, Jess represents the Appalachian Other, an individual who is born into Southern Highland society, but who is, ironically, treated like an outsider by his peers.

The latter's primary goal is to assimilate himself into the English society in which he now lives.

The results show that interviewees maintain memories from childhood and emotions attached to eating habits; parents play an important role in shaping the individuals’ habits as well as their successful assimilation of the majority traditions.

Based on Iain Chambers' observations in Migrancy, Culture, Identity (1994, pp. 6-24), the process of migration can be summarized as the relentless transformation of a single entity into multiple spaces and tempos while various histories of language, of politics, of culture and of experiences are distilled. The migrant then has to negotiate the shared occupation of the same new signs with the 'natives' of the new host country.

El objetivo del presente estudio es el de identificar las tendencias en la traducción de elementos culturales específicos en traducciones de inglés a croata y, posteriormente, correlacionarlas con los desarrollos que ocurrieron en el contexto general en el que se produjeron las traducciones.

Las hipótesis se evalúan usando un corpus de novelas de detective
