This volume explores recent developments in the theory and practice of
accommodating cultural diversity within democratic constitutional
orders. The aim of the book is to provide a broad vision of the
constitutional management of cultural diversity as seen through the
prisms of different disciplines and experiences, both theoretical and
practical. The contributions, which come from Canada and Europe,
comprise a review of the evolving theory of cultural diversity, followed
by two main case studies: a substantive study of the accommodation of
indigenous peoples within different constitutional orders and, secondly,
the importance of constitutional interpretation to the development of
cultural diversity in complex pluralist democracies such as Australia,
Canada and the UK.
