Educational Issues in the Multicultural Society of Germany

Description	This chapter talks about multiculturalism with narrower sense of multiethnicity and multinationality with impacts on education. Present-day Germany must be defined as a "multicultural society, although this is contested by "conservative" politicians and ideologists. Their denials extend from feelings of latent indifference and reservation to manifest intolerance and hostility against "strangers" or "foreigners". Although irrational and demagogic, such attitudes are rooted in a narrow perception of what constitutes "German society". The "ethnic" specification multiculturalism is soon likely to expand. The implementation of the Single Market will result in growing mobility inside the European Community and soon incorporate further countries. In the end this development might absorb the "migrants' issue" by the superordinate "Europeanisation" of multiculturalism in its proper meaning. The chapter concentrates on the inter-personal and social aspects of multiculturalism and multicultural education. However, multicultural education influences the personal development of the young people. It is a process caused by the intra-personal coexistence of two cultures.
