这篇文章有助于理论化的多元文化主义,反对一些以前确定的批评少数民族融合的概念,通过文化承认。这是通过利用少数族裔社区通过参与艺术进行身份建构和谈判的经验证据来实现的。该研究的社会政治背景是苏格兰的权力下放,那里的多元文化主义与民族自我定义问题纠缠在一起。这项研究显示,少数族裔社区对从事艺术,特别是与其族裔背景有关的艺术有相当大的兴趣。然而,这种努力受到结构和文化关系以及向公共组织索取资源的权力差别的制约。文章认为,在权力下放的背景下,少数民族社区的能力,要求在公共竞技场的解释空间是至关重要的依赖于他们的要求,以不断发展的民族文化的代表性,在更广泛的驱动器,以促进单独的国家承认的程度。
This article contributes to theorizing on multiculturalism by countering some previously identified criticisms of the notion of minority integration through cultural recognition. This is achieved by drawing on empirical evidence on identity construction and negotiation by minority ethnic communities through engagement in the arts.The socio-political context of the study is devolved Scotland, where multiculturalism is entangled with issues of national self-definition. The study reveals considerable interest by minority ethnic communities in engaging in the arts, particularly those associated with their ethnic background. However, such efforts are constrained by structural and cultural relations and differential power to claim resources from public organizations. The article argues that in the devolved context, minority ethnic communities' ability to claim interpretive space in the public arena is crucially dependent on the extent to which their claims to evolving representations of national culture are recognized within a wider drive to promote separate nationhood.
