In this new book George Crowder examines some of the leading responses to multiculturalism, both supportive and critical, found in the work of recent political theorists. The book provides a clear introduction to a diverse array of thinkers who have engaged with multiculturalism. These include Will Kymlicka, whose account of cultural rights is seminal, liberal critics of multiculturalism such as Brian Barry and Susan Okin, and multiculturalist critics of liberalism including Charles Taylor, Iris Marion Young, James Tully and Bhikhu Parekh."--Page 4 of cover UR - https://shibboleth2sp.gar.semcs.net/Shibboleth.sso/Login?entityID=https://passport01.leeds.ac.uk/idp/shibboleth&target=https://shibboleth2sp.gar.semcs.net/shib?dest=http%253A%252F%252Fwww.vlebooks.com%252FSHIBBOLETH%253Fdest%253Dhttp%25253A%25252F%25252Fwww.vlebooks.com%25252Fvleweb%25252Fproduct%25252Fopenreader%25253Fid%25253DLeedsUni%252526isbn%25253D9780745673622 UR - http://www.strath.eblib.com/patron/FullRecord.aspx?p=1527429 ER -
