Culture as a Space of Communication; Selected Bibliography; Notes on Contributors; IndexMulticulturalism has long been linked to calls for tolerance of cultural diversity, but today many observers are subjecting the concept to close scrutiny. After the political upheavals of 1968, the commitment to multiculturalism was perceived as a liberal manifesto, but in the post-9/11 era, it is under attack for its relativizing, particularist, and essentializing implications. The essays in this collection offer a nuanced analysis of the multifaceted cultural experience of Central Europe under the late Habsburg monarchy and beyond.Austrian and Habsburg studies17.National characteristics, Central EuropeanNational characteristics, AustrianMulticulturalismAustriaHistoryMulticulturalismEurope, CentralHistoryAustriaEthnic relationsHistoryEurope, CentralEthnic relationsHistoryNational characteristics, Central European.National characteristics, Austrian.MulticulturalismHistory.MulticulturalismHistory.305.8/009436LB 48005rvkFeichtinger Johannes910332Cohen Gary B.1948-872983MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910789016003321Understanding multiculturalism3807668UNINA
