Authenticity, Autonomy And Multiculturalism (Routledge Studies In Social And Political Thought) - 9781138845213

Brings together a distinguished group of philosophers, political theorists, and anthropologists to explore the role that the idea of 'authenticity' plays in the recognition and accommodation of cultural minorities and their practices. Discussing a wide range of illustrative cases and controversies drawn from Britain and continental Europe, North America, Australia, and the Middle East, this book moves beyond abstract discussion to consider also the practical and public policy implications of the putative authenticity of autonomous persons and of cultural practices.
