This paper analyses the phenomenon of the French version of Big Brother in relation to globalisation and democratising, and suggests techniques for its pedagogical exploitation which will enable
undergraduates to reflect on intercultural issues arising out of their own experience of the programme's reception during their year abroad.
Cet article analyse le phénomène de la version
française de Big Brother par rapport aux processus de mondialisation et de démocratisation et offre des exemples d'exploitation pédagogique permettant aux étudiants de
réfléchir aux implications interculturelles de leur expérience personnelle de la réception de l'émission pendant l'année qu'ils ont passée à l'étranger.
