But the reality of terrorism and radicalization of Muslim immigrants has shattered that dream. This work demonstrates that there are deep conflicts of values in the Netherlands.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWinner of the 2008 Robert E. Lane Award, Political Psychology Section of the American Political Science Association \"The authors of When Ways of Life Collide deem the Dutch multicultural experiment to be a grand and unequivocal failure. In their view, multiculturalism and liberal democracy are fundamentally incompatible. Their argument is a relatively simple one: By encouraging 'difference' among ethnic subgroups, multiculturalism ends up turning these groups into targets of resentment and thereby insuring their rejection by the majority culture.\"--Richard Wolin, The Nation \"Sniderman and Hagendoorn expertly describe how, beginning in the 1980s, elite politicians and academics in the Netherlands advocated for an extreme form of accommodation for Dutch immigrants.\"--T.D. Boswell, Choice \"When Ways of Life Collide is a provocative, yet empirical assessment of intrinsic, yet nebulous multiculturalism in today's society.\"--David Marx, David Marx.co.uk \"When Ways of Life Collide is a clever book that offers insight into the attitudinal mechanics of prejudice. These are important issues with high political salience that should interest students of the Netherlands and many other countries around the world.\"--Rahsaan Maxwell, Review of Middle East Studies \"This thought-provoking book provides many interesting insights into the relationships between a culture's values, prejudice, perceived cultural and economic threats, and exclusionary reactions against immigrants, derived from the analysis of a skillfully designed survey. It is relevant to a wide audience concerned with attitudes towards immigrant minorities, immigration, and multiculturalism, as well as to those interested in innovations in survey design.\"--Eline A. de Rooij, European Sociological Review\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Figures and Tables ix  Preface xi  CHAPTER ONE: Introduction 1  CHAPTER TWO: Muslims 17  CHAPTER THREE: Prejudice 43  CHAPTER FOUR: Identity 71  CHAPTER FIVE: Top-Down Politics 100  CHAPTER SIX: Tolerance 123  A Note about the Data 139  Bibliography 141  Index149","brand":"Princeton University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49403767456087,"sku":"9780691141015","price":25.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780691141015.jpg?v=1730484484","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/when-ways-of-life-collide-9780691141015","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
