- Cosmopolitan multiculralism
- Cosmopolitanism
- Different versions
- 'pick and mix' multicultralism
- individuals pick and mix from different features
- variety of cultures
- individuals pick and mix from different features
- vision of society
- where the collision of different cultures produces fusion thats different to any others but unique to place it occurs
- all versions contain KEY ELEMENT of mixing different cultures
- 'pick and mix' multicultralism
- Process where large numbers of distinct cultures come into contact with one another
- in this process: they produce a cultures that is unique
- can be seen as ANTITHESIS of multicultralism
- because at end of process: only one culture & identity
- for fusion to occur - the existing cultures must be in place and capable of interacting with one another
- for it to be effective - diversity of vultures has to consist of free & equal entities
- OTHERWISE: one culture will be dominant and swamp the others
- for it to be effective - diversity of vultures has to consist of free & equal entities
- can be seen as ANTITHESIS of multicultralism
- in this process: they produce a cultures that is unique
- Different versions
- Cosmopolitans insist on MULTICULTURALISM & DIVERSITY
- they are necessary preconditions for the desired fusion to come about
- the new culture will be a combination of all the best source cultures
- EG: JAZZ
- has African origins BUT it couldn't come into existence in Africa
- emerged from interaction of African American culture
- whites seeking to free itself from European heritage
- only could be created in USA as it fitted the demands for truly american music
- whites seeking to free itself from European heritage
- EG: JAZZ
- the new culture will be a combination of all the best source cultures
- they are necessary preconditions for the desired fusion to come about
- Cosmopolitanism is different to 'pick and mix' mulitcultralism
- in 'pick and mix' individuals make random cultural choices from a range of offers
- such as diverse food and culture choices
- its a HYBRID - possesses the features of more than one identity
- in comparison TRUE COSMOPOLITANISM creates a new identity
- in 'pick and mix' individuals make random cultural choices from a range of offers
- Cosmopolitanism
