S kulturnom revolucijom ili bez nje

The author looks into the usefulness of the theoretical concepts that have popped up in the riveting perennial debate between liberals and multiculturalists that revolves around the states of the developed liberal democracy. The question is: how enlightening the theoretical categories of the Anglo-Saxon tradition are for us, and can the solutions from that tradition serve as a guideline in a transitional country such as Croatia. The argument unravels in three steps. In the first two parts the author presents some of the key theoretical concepts by outlining the discussions by Iris M. Young and Brian Barry, and in the third he challenges their usability. The author points out the theoretical as well as the practical-political problems stemming from the politicization of culture.
