Social Psychology and Multiculturalism
Verkuyten, Maykel
Social and Personality Psychology Compass, November 17, 2007, online edition, 18p
"This paper discusses social psychological research on multicultural attitudes and the effect of multiculturalism on intergroup relations. Subsequently, three issues are addressed that are central in debates about multiculturalism and that present additional topics for social psychological research. The first concerns the importance of intragroup processes, the second the nature of religious identity and Islam in particular, and the third issue relates to tolerance and civil liberties." Maykel Verkuyten is a Professor at the Department of Interdisciplinary Social Science at Utrecht University.
