Adventures of identity

Viac o knihe

The problem of identity is one of the key issues in the present discourse on multiculturalism. This volume brings together historians, cultural theorists, literary scholars and political scientists whose common aim is to address questions of identity and identity formation in multicultural societies, concentrating on European historical models and current questions and perspectives. The challenging, progressive or positive aspects relating to multiculturalism appear in a sharper focus in this strongly interdisciplinary collection, compared to other volumes which generally tend to concentrate on the “problematic” or limiting aspects of this important phenomenon of contemporary European societies.
