The multicultural challenge

Cultural pluralisation - reinforced by immigration - has had major consequences for the political agenda in recent years in liberal democratic states. New types of tension have arisen - new forms of social and cultural differentiation, and new patterns of inequality. The diversity also reshapes the frame of reference for traditional policy instruments employed by modern welfare states: new issues arise that are linked to rights, legitimacy and policy measures of a general and targeted nature. This volume in the "Comparative Social Research" series addresses a number of issues related to this new diversity. Common themes are multiculturalism, power and integration, and these themes are analysed through a comparative lens.

  • "These papers are derived from an international seminar that took place in 2001 in Rosendal, Norway. The Institute for Social Research in Oslo was interested in investigating the general power relations in a given society. Most of the papers reveal a distinct unease over the term multi-cultural."
