ISBN10: 1742233368, ISBN13: 9781742233369, [publisher: NewSouth Publishing, Sydney, NSW] Softcover Paperback. Tim Soutphommasane boldly stakes a claim for the overwhelming success of multiculturalism in Australia. European governments are declaring multiculturalism a failure, with many conservatives in Australia hastening to agree. But is a multicultural approach to integration and diversity really as destructive as critics say? Have we been too quick to declare its demise?Offering an unflinching and informed defence of cultural diversity, Soutphommasane shows that multiculturalism is more than laksa, kebabs or souvlaki and that it doesn't automatically spell cultural relativism, ethnic ghettos or reverse racism. In fact, multicultural Australia has been a national success story. Is a multicultural approach to integration and diversity really as destructive as critics say? Have we been too quick to declare its demise?
