About this ebook
Celebrating Diversity: Coexisting in a Multicultural Society, offers pragmatic ways to replace conflictive behaviors between diverse peoples with coexistence alternatives. Coexistence-partnership values and skills help us to outgrow ways of the past--competition, suspicion, manipulation, isolation, victimization. These skills enhance our own lives as well as those of future generations.In Celebrating Diversity, author Benyamin Chetkow-Yanoov asserts that the increasing religious-ethnic-linguistic pluralisms of the twentieth century requires that we cease lumping people different from ourselves into an “other” category. He identifies classical elements of a coexistence model and suggests various strategies and tactics for implementing coexistence in modern societies. Among the many insights you will find are:
- 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
