Details

This Research Handbook presents a comprehensive assessment of multiculturalism in political theory and practice from an international perspective. Geoffrey Brahm Levey brings together 30 leading experts from around the world to assess the current state of the field, charting lines of inquiry for further research.

Chapters canvas the main theoretical justifications of multiculturalism as a public philosophy and policy, the salient issues on which it has been engaged, current challenges to it, and fresh directions it might take. With concluding reflections from seminal philosophical defenders Bhikhu Parekh and Will Kymlicka, the Research Handbook explores the multiple concerns and challenges involved in politically responding justly and inclusively to cultural diversity in democratic societies.

The Research Handbook on Multiculturalism is a rich resource and authoritative reference for students and scholars of political theory, philosophy, public policy, law, sociology, anthropology, and cultural studies. It is also of keen interest to policymakers, politicians, journalists, community leaders, and to those in search of expert analysis of multiculturalism as a public philosophy and policy.
