How, for example, can the claims of ethnic and religious groups be respected when they conflict with individual rights and liberal equality? \u003cem\u003eDiversity and Equality\u003c\/em\u003e critically examines the challenge of protecting rights in diverse societies such as Canada. It develops new approaches in philosophy, law, politics, and anthropology to address the goals and problems associated with cultural, religious, and national minority rights. The contributors to this volume explore the conflicts between group demands for cultural autonomy and individual assertions of basic interests. At stake in these debates about rights and autonomy in multicultural and multinational democracies is the very meaning of freedom.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction: New Approaches to Fundamental Freedom in Canada \/ \u003cem\u003eAvigail Eisenberg \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1.
