Present your view on human exceptionalism (the question whether humans are but highly-developed animals ordo they have an elevated status) ,

Multiculturalism – different cultures will have different views on this. How can they be reconciled? After a brief introductory paragraph defining multiculturalism (no more than 100 words), propose a research approach (of no more than 300 words) in which you substantiate what role (if any?) multiculturalism should play to successfully address this issue. Include a brief motivation whether “political correctness” should play any role when formulating research questions about the place/role of humankind in sustainability. Include references

Answer 1

In the perspective of racial, ethnic, spiritual, geographic disparities, and other cultural indicators that depart from dominant, sometimes racist, "norms," multiculturalism refers to the presence of variation and unequal power relations across communities,( West, 2014). It is a viewpoint that opposes assimilation and the notion of the melting pot as an intrusion of the prevailing culture, preferring analogies like the salad bowl or the beautiful mosaic. Each cultural and ethnic aspect in the community retains its individuality.
