Produktbeschreibung

Cultural diversity is sometimes seen as a feature of modern European society. However, closer examination shows that European societies have always been - to a greater or lesser degree - diverse societies. This book investigates whether European societies are becoming more or less tolerant and pluralistic in their values and practices, and examines those factors which contribute to the construction and maintenance of tolerant, culturally diverse societies with a view to better formulation of policies.
