But what are these Western models, and will they work in Eastern Europe? In the first half of this volume, Will Kymlicka describes a model of 'liberal pluralism' which has gradually emerged in most Westerndemocracies, and discusses what would be involved in adopting it in Eastern Europe. This is followed by 15 commentaries from people actively involved in minority rights issues in the region, as practitioners or academics, and by Kymlicka's reply. This volume will be ofinterest to anyone concerned with ethnic conflict in Eastern Europe, and with the more general question of whether Western liberal values can or should be promoted in the rest of the world. 606 $aElectronic books. -- local 606 $aInformation technology -- Social aspects -- Cross-cultural studies 606 $aOrganizational change -- Cross-cultural studies 607 $aEurope, Eastern$xEthnic relations 615 4$aElectronic books. -- local. 615 4$aInformation technology -- Social aspects -- Cross-cultural studies. 615 4$aOrganizational change -- Cross-cultural studies. 676 $a303.48/33 700 $aKymlicka$b Will$0144469 701 $aOpalski$b Magda$01665187 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808389503321 996 $aCan Liberal Pluralism be Exported$94023660 997 $aUNINA
