This is a critical intervention in liberal theories of
multiculturalism. Multiculturalism has recently been declared dead,
while at the same time the value of diversity is still emphasised -
how can we explain this? In this book, Alexej Ulbricht sets out to
completely reassess liberal theories of multiculturalism, and
argues that the 'backlash' is actually the strengthening of
tendencies already present in liberal multiculturalism. Using the
theories of Roberto Esposito to argue that liberal multiculturalism
is best understood as a series of immunitary processes, Ulbricht
examines some of these processes and looks to what cultural
coexistence beyond immunity might look like. It is a substantive
and original critique that allows us to reassess liberal theories
of multiculturalism. It examines three liberal processes of
immunisation using the work of Kymlicka, Parekh and Taylor. It is
the first major application of Roberto Esposito's work on immunity
in English. It opens up new perspectives on how we might organise
cultural coexistence.
