Reviews

An important and very interesting volume on a topic of great contemporary significance ... This is a very successful volume ... The book as a whole is an exciting venture in the field of applying normative ideas to an often refractory and complex social reality. Nations and Nationalism It poses some surprisingly interesting questions about the relation between philosophy and actuality, or philosophy and power. Radical Philosophy The best reflection and most comprehensive and authoritative summary of the debate on the universality of the western conception of ethnocultural justice. The Global Review of Ethnopolitics The quality of the commentaries on Kymlicka's introductory chapter and his own concluding response ensure that the volume overall fulfils its purpose of critically examining the applicability of western political theory to the ethnopolitics of Central and Eastern Europe. The mix of contributors allows for a balanced debate of Kymlicka's views. The Global Review of Ethnopolitics
