While the cultural diversity of contemporary societies has to be acknowledged as an empirical and demographic fact, whether multiculturalism as a policy offers an optimal conduit for intercultural understanding and social harmony has become increasingly a matter of polarised public debate. This book examines the contested philosophical foundations of multiculturalism and its, often controversial, applications in the context of migrant societies. It also explores the current theoretical debates about the extent to which multiculturalism, and related conceptual constructs, can account for the various ethical challenges and policy dilemmas surrounding the management of cultural diversity in our contemporary societies. The authors consider common conceptual and empirical features from a transnational perspective through analysis of the case studies of Australia, Canada, Columbia, Germany, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and Uruguay. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of political science, comparative politics, international studies, multiculturalism, migration and political sociology"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Contextualizing multiculturalism in the 21st century / Fethi Mansouri and Boulou Ebanda de B'beÌri -- Multiple multiculturalisms : encounters and change in different contexts / Patrick Imbert -- The ethnicity/liberalism contradiction : reflections on the New Zealand Experience / Elizabeth Rata -- Cultural rights in new multicultural democracies / Felipe Arocena -- Harvesting the generous crop of the QueÌbeÌcois reasonable accommodation controversy / Sirma Bilge -- The multicultural, intercultural and the transcultural subject / Vince Marotta -- Addressing cultural differences : whither multiculturalism? / Sue Kenny and Michele Lobo -- Multiculturalism or assimilation and social exclusion : ethnic minorities in the United Kingdom / Gary Craig and Hannah Lewis -- Managing religious diversity and promoting active citizenship : Muslims in Australia, Britain and Germany / Mario Peucker and Shahram Akbarzadeh -- Resilient multiculturalism? : diversifying approaches to community resilience and cultural difference / Michele Grossman -- Comparing transnational identity, affiliations and citizenship in Australia and Canada / Kevin Dunn -- Transcultural politics as deep multiculturalism : Canada in global perspective / Afef Benessaieh -- The future of multiculturalism? : the political discourse of failure and the measures of Success / Paul Morris -- Towards post-multiculturalism? : elite discourse, post-modernism and the challenge of diversity in multi-ethnic societies / Fethi Mansouri and Paula Muraca. 650 0 $a Multiculturalism $x Political aspects. 650 0 $a Multiculturalism $x Political aspects $v Case studies. 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Kulturvergleich. $0 (DE-588)4114328-0 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Multikulturelle Gesellschaft. $0 (DE-588)4214151-5 $2 gnd 700 1 $a Mansouri, Fethi, $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2004094526 700 1 $a De B'beÌri, Boulou Ebanda, $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nr2006024995 830 0 $a Routledge research in comparative politics ; $v 60. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2001108050 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231017015121.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2A948D36E55411E7AFB0C42A97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
