Multi-Culturalism as the Normal Human Experience

Goodenough, Ward A.

Anthropology and Education Quarterly, 7, 4, 4-7, Nov 76

Asserts that power relations in all societies are partially defined by who has access to and knowledge of the component cultures in complex, multi-cultural societies. "As multi-culturalism becomes more pronounced and elaborated, and the field of power becomes greater with increasing social complexity, multi-culturalism becomes an ever more serious problem in the politics of education." (Author/JM)
