In this important book, experts from around the globe come together to examine what solidarity in multicultural societies might mean and how it might be built. Educators will recognise relationships between issues discussed in the book and their own places of work, helping them to better understand issues of diversity and take steps toward building solidarity in their own schools and communities.
