About the Book

The Ashgate Research Companion to Multiculturalism brings together a collection of new essays by leading and emerging scholars in the humanities and social sciences on some of the key issues facing multiculturalism today. It provides a comprehensive and cutting-edge treatment of this important and hotly contested field, offering scholars and students a clear account of the leading theories and critiques of multiculturalism that have developed over the past twenty-five years, as well as a sense of the challenges facing multiculturalism in the future. Key leading scholars, including James Bohman, Barbara Arneil, Avigail Eisenberg, Ghassan Hage, and Paul Patton, discuss multiculturalism in different cultural and national contexts and across a range of disciplinary approaches. In addition to contributions, Duncan Ivison also provides a comprehensive Introduction which surveys the field and offers an extensive guide to further reading. This is a key volume for anyone interested in multiculturalism and its political premise.

Review :
'The Ashgate Research Companion to Multiculturalism is a comprehensive and engrossing treatment of an important subject. The chapters not only offer comprehensive reviews of the state of the debate; they also make engaging and provocative contributions to that debate. This is a book that students and scholars alike will find useful and interesting.' Simone Chambers, University of Toronto, Canada 'An impressive international cast of contributors survey the current literature in this vital field of political and social theory, whilst transforming and renewing these debates and controversies. This book is an essential starting point for research in the field and an necessary reference point for all who wish to defend or challenge the multiculturalist approach to cultural and identity-group accommodation.' Paul Kelly, London School of Economics, UK '... the book provides thought-provoking debate on the theoretical basis for multiculturalism. It seeks, as Ivison puts it, to provide an alternative perspective to discussions driven by fear or short-term political agendas.' Runnymede Bulletin
