Abstract:

The discourse that language is the key to integration has gained momentum all
over Europe, including in Switzerland, where language regulations have been
introduced to integration policies, thus tightening conditions for migrants.
This becomes evident in the legal materialization of the discourse in the form
of "language articles" in the national law on the foreign population and in
the cantonal law of integration in Basel-Stadt. This discourse, referred to as
"integration through language", is critically analyzed in this publication
with the aim to understand its emerging conditions, its broader societal role
and political function. The analysis is based on a critical sociolinguistic
perspective and on a Foucauldian understanding of discourse. It draws 1) on
documents and recordings related to the law drafting processes on the national
level and on the cantonal level of Basel-Stadt, and 2) on interviews with
experts and actors mainly from Basel-Stadt. It is shown how the discourse is
based on ideologies of language and society, on the basis of which a
discussion on the function of this very discourse is launched. (V&R unipress
