This book examines the nature of the conflict between right-wing
populism and multiculturalism: the West's defining conflict in the
modern age. Drawing on a plethora of evidence from politics and
culture in the West, it argues that these two positions, while
antagonistic on the surface, are in fact similar: nationalism and
multiculturalism are two names for one idea, the difference between
them being simply a matter of geography; both outlooks have their
roots in romanticism, sentimentalism, arrogance and a racist
outlook. Rather than defend either approach, this volume urges us
to consider the importance of roots and argues for greater
consideration of what classical liberalism, socialism and feminism
can do to break this impasse in our political thinking, with a
concern for equality and concern for solidarity, regardless of
cultural practice. As such it will appeal to social and political
theorists with interests in political sociology and culture.
