This article reviews multiculturalism theories and policies. It is argued that “interculturalism” and “diversity,” often seen as follow-up notions to an increasingly discredited multiculturalism, differ from the latter in eschewing the idea of justice for historically wronged minorities. After the retreat, only liberal and individual-centered conceptions of multiculturalism are viable.
