Book Multiculturalism and the Government of Canada

Download or read book Multiculturalism and the Government of Canada written by Multiculturalism Program (Canada) and published by Ministre d'Etat, Multiculturalisme. This book was released on 1978 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This booklet, written in English and French, describes the Canadian government's efforts to develop and implement a national policy of multiculturalism, historically and at the present time. A background section discusses government activities and committees established to promote cultural pluralism in the 1940s and 1950s. In the 1960s, the Royal Commission on Bilingualism and Biculturalism was established. A section of the booklet is devoted to recommendations made by the Commission and the government's response. A Minister of State for Multiculturalism was appointed in 1972 and the Canadian Consultative Council on Multiculturalism was established in 1973 as an advisory body to the Minister. A Multiculturalism Directorate was also founded to implement activities promoting multicultural policy. The activities of these groups are delineated in the third section of this booklet. The last two sections discuss the roles played by Federal cultural agencies, other government directorates, departments, and agencies in furthering the national policy. A statement in which Prime Minister Trudeau formally declared a national policy of multiculturalism is appended. (MK)

Book Blurred Boundaries

Download or read book Blurred Boundaries written by Rainer Bauböck and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-08-20 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1999, this volume examines new forms of cultural diversity which result from migration and globalization. Historically, most liberal democracies have developed on the basis of national cultures – either a single one, or a dominant one, or a federation of several ones. However, political and economic developments have upset traditional patterns and have blurred established boundaries. Ongoing immigration from diverse origins has inserted new ethnic minorities into formerly homogenous populations. Democratic liberties and rights provided opportunities for old and new marginalized minorities to resist assimilation and to assert identities. The resulting pattern of multiculturalism is different from earlier ones. Often cultural boundaries are neither clearly defined nor do they simply dissolve by assimilation into a dominant group – they have become fuzzy and a constant source of real or imagined hostility and anxiety. A proliferation of mixed identities goes together with stronger claims for cultural rights and escalating hostilities between ethnic minorities and national majorities. In many countries multiculturalism is today perceived as a challenge rather than as an enrichment. The book focuses on the question how institution and policies of liberal democracies can cope with these trends. The book addresses two tasks: 1) To compare different national contexts and types of ethnic groups (immigrant and indigenous, linguistic and religious minorities) and to discuss how policies of multicultural integration have to be adapted in order to cope with such differences. 2) To evaluate the impact of common rends of globalization which link societies and encourage convergence between national models of multicultural integration.

Book Multiculturalism Within a Bilingual Framework

Download or read book Multiculturalism Within a Bilingual Framework written by Eve Haque and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From the time of its inception in Canada, multiculturalism has generated varied reactions, none more starkly than between French and English Canadians. In this groundbreaking new work, Eve Haque examines the Government of Canada's attempt to forge a national policy of unity based on 'multiculturalism within a bilingual framework, ' a formulation that emerged out of the Royal Commission on Bilingualism and Biculturalism (1963-70). Uncovering how the policies of bilingualism and multiculturalism are inextricably linked, Haque investigates the ways in which they operate together as part of our contemporary national narrative to favour the language and culture of Canada's two 'founding nations' at the expense of other groups. Haque uses previously overlooked archival material, including transcripts of royal commission hearings, memos, and reports, to reveal the conflicts underlying the emergence of this ostensibly seamless policy. By integrating two important areas of scholarly concern -- the evolution and articulation of language rights in Canada, and the history of multiculturalism in the country, Haque provides powerful insight into ongoing asymmetries between Canada's various cultural and linguistic groups."--Publisher's website.
