Based on research from multiple disciplines, The Great Diversity
Debate describes the presence and growth of diversity in the United
States from its earliest years to the present. The author describes
the evolution of the concept of pluralism from a philosophical term
to a concept used in many disciplines and with global significance.
Rather than assuming that diversity is a benefit, Koppelman
investigates the ways in which diversity is actually experienced
and debated across critical sectors of social experience, including
immigration, affirmative action, education, and national identity,
among others. Koppelman takes the sometimes complicated arguments
for and against diversity in school and in society and lays out the
benefits with great clarity and simplicity making this book
accessible to a large audience. Book Features: A broad view of
diversity in the United States based on research from philosophy,
psychology, sociology, political science, economics, and
more.Cogent arguments from both advocates and critics concerning
whether pluralism represents an appropriate response to diversity
in a democratic society.
