Description
Critical Multiculturalism and Intersectionality in a Complex World is a comprehensive guide to understanding social identities, biases, and experiences of oppression and privilege. Through a process of critical self-reflection, readers can examine the history, sources, mechanisms, structures, and current manifestations of oppression.
The book explores deeper cultural patterns, implicit biases, and internalized negative perceptions, enabling readers to explore cultures that have different patterns, values, and behaviors while challenging their own biases about 'other' cultures. New case examples from across the globe are included to provide a framework for improving recognition, confrontation, and dismantling of oppressions.
This updated edition features expanded content on Brazil, United Arab Emirates, Canada, South Africa, Australia, India, and Kenya, making it an essential resource for graduate and undergraduate students of social sciences, human sciences, and humanities studying intersectionality and multiculturalism.
