Resumen: This volume constitutes a selection of essays concerning issues related to the 'Management of Cultural Pluralism in Europe,' which is a UNESCO-sponsored network co-ordinated by the editors of this volume, Charles Westin and Janina W. Dacyl. It addresses challenges involved in the handling of diversity in ethnic and cultural background: modernity and globalisation processes; refugee and migratory flows; racism, xenophobia and socioeconomic exclusion; and, the post-1989 cultural transformations in Eastern and Central Europe. The volume is diversified with regard to the themes addressed as well as the disciplinary orientation of the authors. The presentation commences with essays dealing with 'Diversity Creation and Dynamics' (Part One), followed by presentations involving 'Diversity Categorisation and Perception' (Part Two), and ends with papers devoted to 'Multiculturalism, Diversity Management and Governance' (Part Three). The articles illustrate the challenges involved in encounters of individuals and groups representing diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. It needs to be underlined that even though, the network 'Management of Cultural Pluralism in Europe' constitutes an open discursive platform, it is each individual author who is responsible for the ideas and opinions expressed in his/her essay. We hope that the insights and findings presented, will add to the knowledge of conditions pertaining to governance of spatial and functional multiculturality. (Font: Editor)
