On the Cultural Defence of Nations Hansen, Randall Verfassungsblog 2016-02-23 Text txt rdacontent Computermedien c rdamedia Online-Ressource cr rdacarrier Over the last several decades, a burgeoning literature on minority rights and minority accommodation has emerged. The rights of the ‘majority’ – everyone else – have garnered little interest because scholars have assumed that they will take care of themselves. In this excellent book, Liav Orgad argues that large-scale immigration to Europe and North America has rendered this assumption false. Immigration, above all to North America, is of course not new, but the overall numbers today are greater than in the past, and it is occurring in a new context of globalization, transnationalism (migrants live half their lives or more in their home countries), and radically new technology (which allows one to live in a Twitter/Facebook-/YouTube world entirely in one’s home country language). funded by the government CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 Cultural Rights Liberal Theory Majority Multicultural Max Steinbeis Verfassungsblog gGmbH Verfassungsblog 2366-7044 https://staging.verfassungsblog.de/does-the-majority-have-a-right-to-have-rights-on-the-cultural-defence-of-nations/ raw object
