cultural pluralism

is the peaceful coexistence of different interests, convictions, and life-styles, built upon the presumption that the people is still fundamentally understood within a national frame.

cultural pluralism recognizes difference so long as the general category of the people is still fundamentally understood within a national frame. Such benevolence is often well intentioned, but it fails to acknowledge the critique of modernity that minoritarian cosmopolitans embody in their historic witness to the twentieth century.
