Multiculturalism is a key concept in contemporary political thought, emphasizing the acceptance and celebration of cultural, ethnic, and religious diversity within societies. It rejects assimilation, instead supporting a "mosaic" model where distinct identities are recognized and valued. Key principles include recognition, accommodation, equality, and intercultural dialogue. Major debates focus on individual versus group rights, tolerance versus endorsement, and the balance between integration and separatism. Different forms of multiculturalism-liberal, pluralist, and cosmopolitan-offer varied approaches to managing diversity.
