الثّقافة واللّغة في الجزائر: تنوع وتكامل

Culture and Language in Algeria, diversity and complimentarity

Abstract

In Algeria, the pluralistic linguistic and cultural character is a historical fact that has been shaped by the various events that the region has known. Algeria is the cradle of all civilizations and the crossroads of all cultures, which has constituted a diverse cultural and linguistic heritage that was and still is a source of coexistence among the populations of the region , and was able to preserve it despite the great threat to the foundations of national identity the colonial policy, which deliberately obliterated the most important element of its cultural specifity, which is "the language".

          The repercussions of the colonial period were manifested in the change in the linguistic system and cultural scene in Algeria, which currently defines other transformations in line with the cultural globalisation.
