The problem of multicultural and multiethnic states has become of increasing importance, nowhere more so than in Russia and in Eastern and Central Europe. Minority cultures and groups are increasingly making claims for autonomy, group rights, and representation, and for toleration. Both politically and philosophically, this is now an urgent issue. This course aims to introduce students to the problems of multiculturalism and tolerance, in terms of both theory and practice. Furthermore, the aim is to examine and contrast the Russian and Western approaches to these problems. This will encompass both the history of the idea of toleration and its contemporary application to Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union.
