Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Focussing on the work of the national commissions of Britain, France, Belgium and Quebec Volume II gathers together the experts directly involved in the commissions discussed and documented in Volume I. The most prominent figures involved in the commissions reflect on the compromises made and address the extent to which the target groups of diversity policies were involved in the discussions, the preparation of the report, and what methods were used to make sure their voices were heard. This volume synthesises the insights gained from the various contributors to further the debate by reflecting on whether such commissions represent an appropriate approach to influence legislators and policy makers. Based on first-hand experiences the book focuses on questions of multiple identities, the understanding of identity and whether other related concepts such as nationality, citizenship, equality and multiple identities were taken into account.
