Bilingual Basque Country<br />
The writer Gotzon Garate focuses on a subject of great socio-linguistic<br />
and cultural depth in the Basque Country: that of bilingualism.<br />
The thesis the author defends is conclusive: that real bilingualism<br />
is impossible, it is an illusion. Defending bilingualism means<br />
providing an impetus to the current diglot situation of the Basque<br />
language, as reflected in literature, in the media and education, etc.<br />
