Multiculturalism The Political Theory of Diversity Today

"If you look for a comprehensive and authoritative overview of multiculturalism theories, and for a critical and judicious commentary on their relative merits and shortcomings, you can do no better than read this book."
Christian Joppke, University of Bern
 
"A thoughtful and balanced account of the nature, origins and development of multiculturalism as both a theory and a policy. Shows the internal diversity of multiculturalism and how it necessarily draws on other traditions of thought while continuing to be focussed on distinct concerns of its own. Of interest to scholars and lay readers alike, this fine book is a most welcome addition to the growing literature on the subject."
Bhikhu Parekh, House of Lords
