520 1 $a"The politics of multiculturalism in the post 9/11-7/7 era have made it abundantly clear: Increasing diversity and its politicization as difference have sharpened the need for models of multiculturalism that make society safe from difference, yet safe for difference. In acknowledging the centrality of living together without drifting apart, this book utilizes a comparative approach to demonstrate how and why behind the politics of multiculturalism in North America, Europe, and the Antipodes. The Politics of Multiculturalism also demonstrates how the multiculturalism in a multicultural governance is shifting toward principles of inclusiveness as grounds for living together. In that multicultural politics and politicization of difference are unlikely to subside in the foreseeable future, this groundbreaking book provides a timely and relevant coda for analyzing the quintessential challenge of the 21st century - living together differently without the differences getting in the way of living together equitably."--BOOK JACKET.
