Özet	The status of language is a critical issue in many ethnically divided states. Language policy is one method by which governments attempt to manage ethnic conflict. While these policies are constrained by societal pressures, they tend to be instrumental to elite preferences for assimilationist or pluralistic strategies for achieving political community. This article evaluates a variety of specific language policies in terms of their contribution to this goal. While their effectiveness tends to be highly contingent, official unilingualism, where practicable, seems more likely than multilingualism to lead eventually to political community. /// La politique linguistique de l'Etat plurilingue résulte en partie de contraintes sociales. Elle reflète aussi la stratégie que privilégient les élites: l'assimilation ou le pluralisme. L'évaluation comparative de ces politiques mène à la conclusion que l'unilinguisme, lorsqu'il est applicable, a l'avantage d'offrir de meilleures bases que le multilinguisme sur lesquelles bâtir une communauté politique.
