Celebrating Diversity: Coexisting in a Multicultural Society
Autor Carlton E. Munson, Benjamin Chetkow-Yanoov, B. Harold Chetkow-Yanooven Limba Engleză Hardback – mar 1999
In Celebrating Diversity, author Benyamin Chetkow-Yanoov asserts that the increasing religious-ethnic-linguistic pluralisms of the twentieth century requires that we cease lumping people different from ourselves into an “other” category. He identifies classical elements of a coexistence model and suggests various strategies and tactics for implementing coexistence in modern societies.
Among the many insights you will find are:
- the definition of coexistence
- an analysis of past patterns of majority-minority group relations, such as segregation, tolerance, and integration
- models of majority-minority relations, participation, and coexistence appropriate for the twenty-first century
- illustrations of the coexistence model through examples of places where it is flourishing
- action steps for leaders and citizens to put the idea of coexistence into practice
- a range of research findings that help us determine what is effective in promoting coexistence
