La problemàtica de l'adaptació dels llibres de text. 'La problemática de la adaptación de los libros de texto'.

Partiendo de la diversidad de efectos que se dan sobre una lengua propia cuando en este territorio se ha impuesto otra, se analiza la situación de la lengua catalana. Para conseguir la normalidad lingüística, tiene que desaparecer la imposición de la otra lengua y debe intensificarse la interrelación entre los ciudadanos de toda el área lingüística. Se destaca la importancia de la escuela como factor de cohesión lingüística, y la adecuación de los libros de texto a los currículums vigentes en el sistema educativo de las Islas Baleares, respetando las modalidades insulares de la lengua catalana. Para esta adaptación de los libros de texto existen diferentes vías, como la de substitución y la de la coincidencia.
