AbstractIn this so-called age of “globalization,” many countries see their national language(s) being threatened by more powerful rivals. Japan, however, is an example of a country whose language-culture manages to distance itself from that threat. This paper attempts an observation, through the history of language reforms, of the development of the Japanese written language, as well as of the role played by translation in that process.

The purpose of this article is to demonstrate how the increased proportion of women within the ranks of journalists has had a radical effect on the renewal of professional practices. Relying on her own research data, as well as other recent surveys, the author attemps to show how this influence, far from being only a cosmetic or superfical change, has determined many aspects of the evolution of the journalistic profession. A number of elements related to what is called a major change, occuring presently in journalism, can be related to the behavior or the claims many women journalists have held in recent years.

This article is based on open interviews with adoptive parents on their family experience following the adoption of their foreign born child. It highlights these parents representations of their child's origins and identity. Two points are developed : how the adopted child is introduced in its adoptive family and the importance attributed by its parents to its personal and cultural origins. Firstly, the paradoxical dimension of the adoptive identity is underlined since it enhances the tension between the need to firmly construct the child's new affiliation and the necessary acknowledgment of its foreign origin.
