Items related to Citizenship in Diverse Societies
Citizenship and diversity have been two major topics of debate over the last decade. But these two topics have been largely discussed in mutual isolation. This book examines the specific points of conflict and convergence between concerns for citizenship and diversity in democratic societies and reasseses and refines existing theories of "diverse citizenship" in light of actual practices and policies of pluralistic democracies.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Is it possible, in a modern, pluralistic society, to promote common bonds of citizenship while at the same time accommodating and showing respect for ethnocultural diversity? 'Citizenship' and 'diversity' have been two of the major topics of debate in both democratic politics and political theory over the past decade. Much has been written about the importance of citizenship, civic identities, and civic virtues for the functioning of liberal democracies, and theneed to accommodate the ethnocultural, linguistic, and religious pluralism that is a fact of life in most modern states. By and large, however, these two topics have been largely discussed in mutualisolation. Much of the writing on the issues of both citizenship and diversity remains rather abstract and general and disconnected from the specific issues of public policy and institutional design. Citizenship in Diverse Societies examines the specific points of conflict and convergence between concerns for citizenship and diversity in democratic societies and reassesses and refines existing theories of 'diverse citizenship' by examining these theories in thelight of actual practices and policies of pluralistic democracies. The book examines the contradition in a modern pluralistic society between the concepts of citizenship and the desire to show respect for ethnocultural diversity. This item is printed on demand.
