Belonging?: Diversity, Recognition and Shared Citizenship in Canada

By Keith G. Banting

The essays in The Art of the State III explore Canada's approaches to recognizing and accommodating diversity, including the instruments of shared citizenship, evaluating their capacity to respond to new pressures and concerns. Contributors also offer comparative analyses of the approaches taken by other countries, such as the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and Eastern Europe.

Topics include challenges to multiculturalism, aboriginal policies and governance, the political engagement of new Canadians, managing diversity in Canadian cities, immigrants and civic integration in Western Europe, and religious allegiance and shared citizenship.
