This claim requires an assessment of the effect of the policies that were drafted based on this political philosophy. In this study, the author analyses two sets of policies developed from multiculturalism: policies of anti-discrimination of minorities and their labour market participation. The effect of these policies is assessed by studying the policy objectives and their results. Based on this review, the author concludes that while there is still much to achieve in the fields of anti-discrimination and labour market participation, multiculturalism did not fail in the UK. On the contrary, it created a positive public perception of diversity and a high participation of minorities in the labour market. This contrasts with results achieved in the Netherlands where policies have fluctuated in such a way that the public attitude towards diversity is ambivalent and the participation of minorities in the labour market is much lower than that of their native counterpart. 606 $aMulticulturalism$zGreat Britain$xGovernment policy 606 $aMulticulturalism$zNetherlands$xGovernment policy 615 0$aMulticulturalism$xGovernment policy. 615 0$aMulticulturalism$xGovernment policy. 676 $a305.8 700 $aCoello$b Laura$01595564 702 $aPrins$b Baukje$f1956- 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820609303321 996 $aSignificant difference$93916554 997 $aUNINA
