Summary/Abstract |
Criticism of multiculturalism is becoming a fashionable political trend in Europe, but it is drawing divergent responses in Russia. In the meantime, the meaning of the concept has not been completely clarified to this day, and the debate on the issue remains purely political. In this article I venture to present my own theory postulating that the weakening of the purely traditionalist ideology, as expressed in the concept of vulgar (simplified, emasculated) multiculturalism is due to fundamental historical trends - the rising and falling tides of modernization.
