Abstract

This study aims to explore the issues related to the expression “visible minority” in Quebec context. Indeed, despite its frequency, the meaning of the term “visible minority” is the subject of debate and criticism, whether from institutions or citizens, and the outlines of which are often controversial. We therefore propose to verify whether the expression can be considered as a discur- sive formula and to study a corpora constituted by technodiscourses (tweets) in order to analyse the way in which users question and negotiate the meaning of the formula.
Cette étude vise à explorer les enjeux liés à l’expression minorité visible dans le contexte québécois. En effet, malgré sa fréquence, le sens de minorité visible fait l’objet de débats et de critiques, que ce soit de la part des institutions ou des citoyens, et ses contours sont souvent polémiques. Nous nous proposons donc de vérifier si l’expression peut être considérée comme une formule discursive et d’étudier un corpus constitué par des technodiscours (tweets) afin d’analyser la façon dont les usagers remettent en question et négocient le sens de la formule.
