Descrizione
In Europe, interculturalism rather than multiculturalism is increasingly considered as the key strategy to manage social and cultural diversity related to migration. While it does not deny the importance of cultural diversity, interculturalism nevertheless focuses on social cohesion and shared values. In that regard, the 2008 Council of Europe’s White Paper on Intercultural Dialoguehas emphasized two instruments: civic/citizenship education programmes and the introduction of teaching about religionscharacterized bya non-denominational and plural approach to religious knowledge.Have thesepushesbeen sufficient to bring about some convergence inareas that are traditionally a manifestation of national constitutional identities? This edited book tries to give an answer by considering some national experiences and drawingsome comparative remarks.
