Résumé anglais Chantai Lemercier-Quelquejay, Elhnolinguistic problems and Soviet policy in Dagestan. Dagestan has always presented a curious and paradoxical landscape: diversity in a number of ethnic, social, and economic domains, but also unity based on the conscience of belonging to a national group, that of mountain people, reinforced by a common historical tradition and a spiritual Islamic cohesion. Soviet nationalities policy in Dagestan was the same as the one applied in other Muslim territories of the USSR. The linguistic policy seems to have been a success because it resulted in making the Russian language the lingua franca of the Dagestanis. But this cannot be said of the biological and cultural assimilation since language is but one of the factors of national identity.
