Description
This interdisciplinary collection addresses the position of minorities in democratic societies, with a particular focus on minority rights and recognition.
For the first time, it brings together leading international authorities on ethnicity, nationalism and minority rights from both social and political theory, with the specific aim of fostering further debate between the disciplines.
In their introduction, the editors explore the ways in which politics and sociology can complement each other in unravelling the many contradictory aspects of complex phenomena.
Topics addressed include the constructed nature of ethnicity, its relation to class and to 'new racism', different forms of nationalism, self determination and indigenous politics, the politics of recognition versus the politics of redistribution, and the re-emergence of cosmopolitanism.
This book is essential reading for all those involved in the study of ethnicity, nationalism and minority rights.
