"D-I-V-E-R-S-I-T-E. Neuf lettres pour écrire un mot et bien plus qu'un mot : un enjeu fondamental de la vie en société. Egrenant chaque lettre de ce concept autour d'un chapitre spécifique, cet ouvrage est construit sur le principe du dialogue, du regard croisé à chaque fois posé entre un chercheur et un acteur spécialiste du terrain. Neuf mots, neuf concepts sont alors abordés pour éclairer cette diversité autour de thèmes : Discrimination, Intégration, Vie sociale, Extrême droite, Racisme, Stéréotype, Immigration, Territoire, Ethnicité et Classes sociales. Autant de mots souvent entendus, parfois galvaudés qui se retrouvent ici interrogés, débattus et argumentés, sous un regard neuf et original, à partir d'une approche interdisciplinaire. Tour à tour, le thème de la diversité est présenté au défi de sa gestion et de sa gouvernante, renvoyé à la question de la justice sociale, interpellé par la montée des peurs et des dérives les plus sombres. Liés aux tensions entre le social et l'économique, au poids des normes, à la question des identités, au jeu des oscillations entre visibilité et invisibilité, aux jeux de pouvoir et à la perte de souveraineté des Etats, les enjeux abordés et les niveaux de lecture sont multiples. Ils se laissent alors approcher pas à pas, pour mieux en saisir la dynamique."--Page 4 of cover.

The first volume of the two-volume book publication entitled "Multiculturalism, Conflict and Belonging", which stems out of the four-day international conference under the same title organized by Interdisciplinary.Net at Mansfield College, Oxford University, in September 2012, aims not only at exploring the concepts of "identity", "difference" and "belonging" from a theoretical perspective, but more importantly at relating them empirically to multicultural contexts that shed a better light on the concepts in question. Both volumes are composed of chapters under various themes that provide an analytical analysis on how individuals choose and shift from one identity to the other as well as how they voluntarily and involuntarily belong to one or the other group thus shaping the very fabrics of a multicultural environment. This first volume entitled "Identity, Difference and Belonging" is composed of nine chapters that are divided under two main themes, namely: (1) Making and Negotiating Identities: Education, Religion and Culture; and (2) Making Identities: Cultural Representations.

Education is a thoroughly political enterprise. The process of determining the purpose of education has always been highly controversial. It has resulted in disputes that have not only divided people philosophically, but also on the basis of religion, region, class, race, and ethnicity. As a result, education provides us with a spectacular arena in which to explore the tensions inherent in European and North American societies, as well as an understanding of how current politics shape education policy. This book focuses on the politics of education, relating to the formation of national identities as affected by globalization and multiculturalism. It assesses the ways in which governance institutions, political ideologies and competing interests, both within and outside of the education community, influence the content, form, and functioning of education. As a collection of studies of the political aspects of education and educational policy-making, this book reaffirms that educational phenomena reflect and inevitably serve specific political agendas. Political scientists, sociologists and education scholars will find this to be an important and valuable text.

This book explores recent developments in the theory and practice of accommodating cultural diversity within democratic constitutional orders. It brings together philosophers and legal scholars to explore the inter-play between the normative precepts advanced by the former for the accommodation of cultural pluralism and the reality of that accommodation as it plays itself out in political and legal practice, as explained by the latter. The aim of the book is to provide a holistic picture of the constitutional management of cultural diversity through the prisms of different disciplines and experiences: theoretical and practical. Contributions come from Canada, Scotland and England and concentrate on two main case studies: a substantive study of the accommodation of indigenous peoples within different constitutional orders and, secondly, the role of the courts as their approach to cultural diversity evolves in complex pluralist democracies such as Australia, Canada and the UK.

Multicultural and multiculturalism are words frequently used to describe the ethnic diversity which exists everywhere in the world. However, there is some confusion about what precisely they signify. Do they simply describe diversity or are they advocating a particular response to that diversity? This book looks at some of the debates associated with these words and with the concepts attached to them. In particular the arguments for and against multiculturalism are examined in the context of modern states in different political and historical circumstances. Attitudes and emphases in relation to multiculturalism differ, it is argued, from one country to another and the chapters of the book draw out the dimensions of difference with examples ranging from Europe and the USA to South-East Asia and China. The focus of the discussion is placed on issues such as minority rights, education, religious tolerance and the trend to global homogenization. Running through the description of these issues in an implicit critique of the loose way in which the word culture is used to mean an unchanging set of definitive characteristics and how that usage bedevils discussions of multiculturalism.

The twentieth century saw an unprecedented movement of peoples from one geographical area to another. At the same time with the end of colonialism it also saw the birth of many new states. Consequently, in the world today we find that countries comprise people of different ethnic groups, speaking different languages, following different religions and remembering different histories while at the same time declaring a common allegiance to the state of which they are citizens. The diversity and difference which exists within national boundaries can contribute to the strength of the country; on the other hand it may lead to internal conflict and tension. Multiculturalism is a term frequently used both to describe the variety that exists and the problems to which it gives rise. This book examines multiculturalism in the context of the national experience of countries such as France, Britain, Malaysia, the USA and China.

The book explores the comparative experience throughout the world in accommodating cultural diversity. Such policy spheres as decentralization and federalism, electoral systems, education, status and rights of immigrants and indigenous peoples, and affirmative action are examined by a distinguished array of international scholars. In recent years, the saliency of conflicts putting different ethnic, racial and religious groups one against another has increased dramatically. So also has realization that the world of nation-states is much more diverse than previously thought. Only a small number of the 185 independent countries are truly homogenous. With the end of the cold war, the relative importance of ethnic conflicts as a threat to international peace and stability is far greater.

In recent years, the saliency of conflicts pitting different ethnic, racial and religious groups against one another has increased dramatically. The world of nation-states is much more diverse than previously realized; only a small number of the 185 independent countries are truly homogeneous. With the end of the cold war, the relative importance of ethnic conflicts as a threat to international peace and stability is far greater. An international set of scholars collaborate in this volume to explore policy alternatives which can contribute towards the accommodation of cultural diversity.
