"Multiculturalism in a Global Society" explores the concepts and
debates surrounding the complex modern phenomenon of
multiculturalism, and its varied effects on the advanced industrial
nations of the world. With remarkable clarity and concision, it
focuses on the interrelated ties of ethnicity, race, and
nationalism in a world where globalizing processes have made such
ties increasingly important in economic, political, and cultural
terms. Beginning with a discussion and reformulation of
contemporary theories of ethnicity, the book turns to case studies
of the three major "settler" states in the world: the United
States, Canada, and Australia. Coverage of western Europe follows,
with analyses of postcolonial Britain, Germany, and France. The
book concludes with a succinct summary and thoughtful prognosis
about the future directions of our increasingly global society.
Students and scholars looking for the most up-to-date approach
to understanding multiculturalism in a global perspective will find
this to be an engaging, penetrating, and illuminating text.
