Multiculturalism and the Foundations of Meaningful Life: Reconciling Automony, Identity, and Community

Andrew M. Robinson

4.9/5 (30108 ratings)

Description:Theories of liberal multiculturalism seek to reconcile particular cultural rights with universal liberal principles. Some privilege individual autonomy; others emphasize communal identity. Andrew M. Robinson argues that liberal multiculturalism can be justified without privileging autonomy or community. By appealing to the deeper value of meaningful life, he shows how autonomy and community, properly reconfigured, are actually interdependent. He then derives from these values the policy principles that provide the most extensive recognition of cultural diversity consonant with the moral universalism that underlies the very idea of human rights. These principles, and their application in challenging cases, are illustrated with reference to national minorities, ethnic minorities, indigenous peoples, and traditional communities. An innovative account of the theory and practice of liberal multiculturalism, Multiculturalism and the Foundations of Meaningful Life will interest students, scholars, activists and policy makers working in areas of political theory, multiculturalism, indigenous peoples, and ethnic and religious minorities.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
