Multicultural Controversies: Political Struggles, Cultural Consumerism and State Management

In this short but all-encompassing account of multiculturalism, Multicultural Controversies studies the emergence and development of multiculturalism as a concept mapped out through a variety of controversial discussions. Arguing that multiculturalism cannot be reduced just to the issues of emigration and religion, the author pursues a comprehensive approach reflecting a trans-disciplinary interest in the intersection of critical social theory and radical political philosophy with post-colonial studies, and examines the overall contexts (historical, socio-political, cultural and philosophical/speculative) in which multiculturalism emerges and develops as a concept.
