“…In this sense, the ecology of pressures allows the displacement of minority languages to be analyzed, (Terborg, 2006;Terborg & García, 2011). This model gives key factors to understand this process as a dialectical pulse between different communities' understandings of what the language management and sustainability should be.…”

“…This model gives key factors to understand this process as a dialectical pulse between different communities' understandings of what the language management and sustainability should be. Thus, if the relationship of power between two linguistic communities becomes asymmetric and troubled, then every attitude, behavior, and speech act are transformed into a pressure that tries to impose the exclusive use of one language in communication (Terborg & García, 2011). Indeed, some interlocutors will try to configure the state of the world as a monolingual ideal where their language abolishes the use, presence, and existence of any other language.…”

Traditionally, social research in Mexico has not adjusted so much to a multilingual phenomenal reality as to a monolingualistic social imaginary representation. This means that when researchers analyze their reality, they do so under personal biases; thus, ignoring and hiding the daily multilingual reality. To find out how these linguistic prejudices and biases affect the methods applied, the authors of the present case study analyzed 77 postgraduate theses carried out in 2002-2019 at Universidad Veracruzana, Mexico. These theses applied interview techniques to speakers of national indigenous languages. The results show their study designs tend to linguistically homogenize populations based on a monolingual nationalist imagined community. A prevalence of more than 90 % in the application of linguistically minoritizing interviews evidences the pervasiveness of monolingual attitudes in the academy that limit methodological results and discriminate against studied populations. This means that the detection of linguistically minoritizing interviews can serve as another indicator to assess the university as an entity that exercises linguistic pressure on the communities being studied.

El desplazamiento lingüístico es un fenómeno que acaba con la diversidad lingüística de los países, por lo que es necesario atender el problema y comprender sus alcances, para aminorar sus repercusiones. El objetivo del artículo es, por medio de un estudio basado en la ecología de presiones, mostrar algunos factores de desplazamiento lingüístico en dos poblaciones indígenas de México: la comunidad náhuatl Cuacuila y la comunidad mazahua San Miguel la Labor. Mediante la comparación de estas dos comunidades y la medición del nivel de desplazamiento-mantenimiento lingüístico de cada poblado, a través de la identificación de la presión de la máxima facilidad compartida, se reconocen las diferencias y semejanzas entre ambas localidades con la intención de identificar las causas particulares del fenómeno.
