| Description: |
Critically examines the challenge of protecting rights in diverse societies. |
| Synopsis: |
The tension between diversity and equality is central to debates aboutmulticulturalism, self-determination, identity, and pluralism. How, forexample, can the claims of ethnic and religious groups be respectedwhen they conflict with individual rights and liberal equality?Diversity and Equality critically examines the challenge ofprotecting rights in diverse societies such as Canada. It develops newapproaches in philosophy, law, politics, and anthropology to addressthe goals and problems associated with cultural, religious, andnational minority rights. The contributors to this volume explore theconflicts between group demands for cultural autonomy and individualassertions of basic interests. At stake in these debates about rightsand autonomy in multicultural and multinational democracies is the verymeaning of freedom. |
