Multiculturalism on Nationalism - Dictionary of Arguments
Gaus I 260 Nationalism/Multiculturalism/Kukathas: to the extent that multiculturalism advocates the accommodation of a plurality of identities holding to divergent values within a polity, it is inconsistent with any form of nationalism. And yet, in another sense, multiculturalism is the theory of nationalism par excellence, at least if one takes Moore's view that nationalism implies not separatism, but only a measure of independence. >Nationalism/Moore. Diversity: to reconcile multiculturalism, or indeed any form of pluralism, with nationalism has been an important concern for a number of theorists who wish to hold on to the principle of nationality without jettisoning cultural diversity and the toleration of difference. David Miller: of particular significance here is the work of David Miller (1995(1); 2000(2); 2001(3)), who considers that nations have good reason for wanting to be self-determining, but also thinks that we can recognize the claims of nationality without suppressing other sources of identity, such as ethnicity. >Nations/Miller. 1.
