Próba analizy socjologicznej [Multiculturalism: The Stigma of the Modern World? An Attempt at a Sociological Analysis], the subject of this article is multiculturalism as a phenomenon, a political project, and a real kind of existing society (multiculturalism is not the same as interculturalism or transculturalism). In the discourse on multiculturalism, many specific questions arise: the inevitability of the phenomenon and its genesis; the beginnings and bases of multiculturalism as a political project and its challenges; the reality of multicultural societies—from affirmation to contestation. Model discourse over multiculturalism is confronted with a range of remarks, commentaries, and questions about its fundamental significance, for example, about the potential for realizing the idea of multiculturalism in Europe, and whether Australia and Canada are now definitely multicultural societies.}, type={Recenzje / Book Reviews}, title={Multiculturalism — Visions and Contemporary Realities}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/116353/PDF/KiS.2019.63.3.14.pdf}, keywords={multiculturalism as a phenomenon, multicultural society, cultural pluralism, social conflict, ethnic conflict, social exchange, Australia and Canada as multicultural societies}, }
