Description: "In this collection, leading commentators from France and Britain compare how two European countries, with very distinct national traditions, are facing up to the challenges of multiculturalism and issues of identity. Exploring the assumptions underlying minority policies and the constructions of identity, this volume explores how and why they need to be revised."--Jacket.
