Celebrating Diversity
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-7890-0438-3 (ISBN)
the definition of coexistence
an analysis of past patterns of majority-minority group relations, such as segregation, tolerance, and integration
models of majority-minority relations, participation, and coexistence appropriate for the twenty-first century
illustrations of the coexistence model through examples of places where it is flourishing
action steps for leaders and citizens to put the idea of coexistence into practice
a range of research findings that help us determine what is effective in promoting coexistence
In the pages of Celebrating Diversity, you can learn social skills for preventing conflict escalation, for finding areas of common interest, and for working cooperatively. As more of us become informed about alternatives to violence, hopefully we can find ways to bring peace to areas of unrest, such as Algeria, Ireland, Israel, Nigeria, Rwanda, Serbia, or the former Soviet Union.
