Abstract
In recent years both European and traditional settler societies such as
the USA, Canada or Australia have faced a moment that has been
diagnosed as the crisis of recognition and multiculturalism and have
experienced the rise of post-multiculturalism (Gozdecka, Ercan & Kmak
2014; Kymlicka 2010; Vertovec 2010). This has come as somewhat of a
surprise, since Western societies have for years been aspiring to adopt
laws and policies that tend to include rather than exclude different types
of minorities and recognise a vast array of identities. This trend towards
increased inclusion has been driving both national and international
legal platforms, leading to affirmation of the rights of minorities,
pluralism, non-discrimination, tolerance, justice, solidarity and equality
between women and men by the majority of constitutional orders
(Skrentny 2010) and institutions such as the EU (Treaty on European
Union, article 2).
