Synopsis
European Multiculturalism Revisited analyzes the main 'models' of multicultural societies that Europe has experienced since the end of World War 2. Based on research conducted by local scholars in the UK, Denmark, the Netherlands, Italy, France and Germany, the point of departure is the alleged crisis of these models: in Britain after the July bombings, in the Netherlands after the Van Gogh assassination, also in Denmark and other countries, including France, where doubts about their assimilation approach have grown stronger. The analysis consists of a historical account of how in each country the model developed and was implemented in practice, followed by an analysis of the factors that have led to the claim that the model has failed. The question being: did it actually fail, and if it failed was it because of some intrinsic weaknesses, or rather of some external and contingent circumstances?

Review
"Many believe that multiculturalism is dead (and good riddance!). Yet the issues raised by multiculturalism are still with us: equality, inclusion, sense of belonging and the remaking of national polities with spaces for individuals and groups defined by difference. It is then good to find a book which is not taken in by a false political rhetoric but is willing to adapt multiculturalism across Europe. This book is to be recommend to students and specialists alike." —Tariq Modood, University of Bristol
