Evropská krize multikulturalismu; soudobá tendence integrace menšin

In European context a concept of multiculturalism is a very actual and discussed topic. In recent years, post-war recruitment of cheap labour force, mostly from non-European countries, resulted in a crisis of European majority and immigrant minority coexistence. The main task of the Bachelor thesis is to answer following questions: Why the idea of multiculturalism cannot work in practice and why it is necessary to focus on the integration of minorities. The thesis is structured into four chapters. In first two, theoretical bases of concept of multiculturalism and of national interest are analysed. Third and fourth chapters deal with current issues concerning coexistence of people from different cultures and tendency of the immigrant integration. The thesis balances between the degree of tolerance towards minorities, defense of national values and tendency to build a global monoculture.
