Liberal Multiculturalism and the Fair Terms of Integration

by P. Balint (Editor), S. Guérard de Latour (Editor)

Overview

Multiculturalism has come under considerable attack in political practice, yet the fact of diversity remains, and with it the need to establish fair terms of integration. This book defends multiculturalism as the most coherent and practicable approach to liberal integration, but one that is not without the need for crucial reformulation.
