From multicultural pluralism to multicultural egoism

This study aims to recall the ideas and activities of multiculturalism. In what form is multiculturalism possible today? Is it model, which is trying to establish itself in the societies of Europe? It is a fact that today globalization has covered all social spaces in which globalization processes are manifested depending on the readiness to accept its aspects. The fact is that it happens for this reason at “different speeds.” And, it is a fact that globalization is “shifting” as a global process from the West to the Southeast. The conclusion that can be drawn is that, despite all possible integration policies and ideological postulates, the current model of multiculturalism in Europe has minimized the possibilities and attempts of social dialogues through which we can try to perform, express and discuss deep social and cultural issues and to solve problems.

Abstract

This study aims to recall the ideas and activities of multiculturalism. In what form is multiculturalism possible today? Is it model, which is trying to establish itself in the societies of Europe? It is a fact that today globalization has covered all social spaces in which globalization processes are manifested depending on the readiness to accept its aspects. The fact is that it happens for this reason at “different speeds.” And, it is a fact that globalization is “shifting” as a global process from the West to the Southeast. The conclusion that can be drawn is that, despite all possible integration policies and ideological postulates, the current model of multiculturalism in Europe has minimized the possibilities and attempts of social dialogues through which we can try to perform, express and discuss deep social and cultural issues and to solve problems.
