“Mapping Multiculturalism maps the terrain of multiculturalism, noting the contradictory and powerful meanings of the term and inviting us to take a careful look at this concept so that we may use this term more appropriately in the future.” —Contemporary Sociology “A most impressive and ambitious undertaking, one that offers thoughtful reflections on ‘multiculturalism’ by leading figures in literary criticism, the social sciences, ethnic studies, critical legal studies, activism and the arts. Mapping Multiculturalism is a ground-breaking work.” —International Examiner “This serious work on a serious issue is highly recommended for academic libraries.” —Library Journal “Ambitious in scope, these essays not only define the boundaries of the social movement but also provide a much needed critique of some of the many paradigms that claim to be multicultural. Diverse in range, various essays present personal narrative, documentary record, and theoretical analysis.” —Bloomsbury Review 504 pages | 5 7/8 x 9 | 1996 |
