| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Multiculturalism can be understood and explained as a fact, as a value and as a policy. In the contemporary milieu of ever increasing international migration and mixing of cultures, cultural diversity is inevitable. In this context to understand multiculturalism in all its dimensions becomes all the more relevant. Both India and Europe are multicultural. If on one hand the magnitude of ethnographic-cultural diversity of India and Europe presents interesting patterns of ‘unity in diversity’ then on the other hand it poses challenges of social integration of people from different cultural and ethnic background. |
