Summary

This article reviews multiculturalism theories and policies.It is argued that “interculturalism” and “diversity,” often seen as follow-up notions to an increasingly discredited multiculturalism, differ from the latter in eschewing the idea of justice for historically wronged minorities.After the retreat, only liberal and individual-centered conceptions of multiculturalism are viable.

Canada, diversity, Europe, interculturalism, liberalism, multiculturalism
