About This Book
The essays in Cultural Pluralism, Identity Politics, and the Law, written by scholars from a variety of disciplines and theoretical inclinations, challenge orthodox understandings of the nature of identity politics and contemporary debates about separatism and assimilation. They ask us to think seriously about the ways law has been, and continues to be, implicated in these debates.
The essays address questions about the challenges posed for notions of legal justice and procedural fairness by cultural pluralism and identity politics; the role played by law in structuring the terms on which recognition, accommodation, and inclusion are accorded to groups in the United States; and how much accepted notions of law are defined by an ideal of integration and assimilation.
