Abstract

The volume Minorities in Canada – Intercultural Investigations contains sixteen papers written by scholars based in Canada, Western and Central Europe (Ireland, Spain, Germany, the Czech Republic, Croatia and Hungary). The multidisciplinary collection offers reflections on ongoing minority-related discourses in Canada from philosophy to healthcare to anthropology to literary studies. Canadian ethnic communities and Indigenous peoples feature as the two main thematic nodes papers center around, reflecting on various inter- and transcultural issues such as the impact of one community on the other, how policy making has affected a particular community, communal memory, in-betweenness, identity shifts, appropriation, problems and conflicts arising from inter- and transcultural encounters as well as suggestions as to how these can be reconciliated.
