In an age of multiculturalism and identity politics, many minority groups seek some form of official recognition or public accommodation of their identity.

Their case studies focus on key issues where identity is central to public policy. By illuminating both the risks and opportunities of institutional responses to diversity, this volume shows that public institutions can either enhance or distort the benefits of identity politics.
