description This article examines different economic dimensions of the language question in Occitania. It begins with a historical review of regional underdevelopment in Occitania during the 19th and 20th centuries, when social struggles were accompanied by the use of the Occitan language to reinforce grievances. It then presents the internal colonialism theories and the new situation created by the ‘revenge of the South’. Finally, it examines attempts in the region to link language defence with local development (circular economy, locavorism) through linguistic labels.
