German unification is both a cause and an effect of the restructuring of alliances now taking place with the end of the long postwar era. An enlarged Germany finds itself in a new geostrategic position at the centre of a henceforth unified continent and its vocation is pan-European. The underpinnings of its external policy and its security have been modified. In this context, the German government has opted not only for keeping a renewed NATO but also for deepening and widening Europe's economic and political institutions. It does not want to disappoint either the Americans or its European Community partners and those wishing to join the EC. Nor does it want to disappoint the East Europeans, including those-of the former Soviet Union. Nevertheless, the traditional policy of seeking non-isolation, at times not without ambivalence, is destined to change and could become more assertive. Two items testify to this change in direction : the "debate over normalization', which has brought down taboos in Germany, and the leadership role that Bonn has openly taken, for the first time since 1945, on the issue of recognition without further delay of Slovenia and Croatia by the European Community as of January 15 1992.

This study of the patterns of cohabitation of young adults aged between 20 and 29 and of people aged over 65, from census samples of the IECM database, highlights the spatial heterogeneity of patterns of cohabitation, showing not only an opposition between France and Spain, but also subnational disparities between French and Spanish regions. In terms of family co-residence of older people, we discover a continuity across the national boundary, resulting from the persistence of traditional family models in the regions of northern Spain and of southern France. Disparities in the prevalence of cohabitation among young adults are less strong, and correspond to a new phenomenon which is relatively homogeneous and detached from “traditional family models.” At the cantonal level, data obtained from the cantonal French census data of 2006 highlight important sub-regional differences in terms of family co-residence. Here we can clearly identify a particular concentration of the traditional model of “root family” in the extreme southwest of Aquitaine.

This article questions how the European Commission (EC) is making a case for the ecological and digital transition, two strategic priorities for 2019-2024 that are difficult to reconcile and coexist. As intimately linked in substance as they are separate in form, the ecological and digital transitions are the subject of two distinct sections on the EC web portal: they constitute the corpus of the study, multimodal and rich from an editorial point of view. After having situated our approach within the theoretical approaches of European public communication and elaborated the methodology according to a discursive and semiotic approach, we confront the results of the discourse analysis with those of the study of textual landscapes. The discursive filiations, tensions, variants (motifs, narratives and proposed models; significant places and moments), and invariants (gnomic statements) identified allow us to specify the Doxa on which the communicational paradox considered is based.
