Bennett - Differing diversities
Bennett, T. (2001). Differing diversities: Transversal study on the theme of cultural policy and cultural diversity. Council of Europe. ISBN 92-871-4649-7
This report examines the impact of cultural diversity on conventional cultural policy and explores the challenges it presents. It specifically addresses the concepts of citizenship and democratic public policy within culturally diverse societies. Taking a comparative international approach, the report concentrates on cultural differences based on ethnicity. It analyses different policy contexts that greatly influence the overall trajectory of cultural policy and proposes principles of cultural entitlement rooted in diversity. The report offers recommendations for the Council of Europe and its member states to enhance the promotion of cultural diversity. It should be noted that the report is followed by seven position papers authored by internationally relevant scholars. These papers complement and explore different aspects of the content offered in the report.
