Is Multiculturalism Bad for Women? by Susan Moller Okin
Do demands for multiculturalism make them more likely to continue and to spread to liberal democracies? Are there fundamental conflicts between our commitment to gender equity and our increasing desire to respect the customs of minority cultures or religions? This book explores these unsettling questions.
"This collection offers succinct, compelling and intelligent arguments on both sides, notably from a diverse group of respondents' to Okin's views"--Publisher's Weekly
