Out of the Melting Pot, Into the Fire: Multiculturalism in the World's Past and America's Future Heycke Jens Kurt
The melting pot has been the prevailing ideal for integrating new citizens through most of America's history, yet contemporary elites often reject it as antiquated and racist. Both models have precedents across the centuries, as Jens Heycke demonstrates in a contribution to the debate that incorporates an international, historical perspective.Heycke surveys multiethnic polities in history, focusing on societies that have shifted between the melting pot and multicultural models. Instead, they advocate multiculturalism, which promotes ethnic boundaries and distinct group identities.
He details how early Islam, with its ideal of an inclusive ummah, integrated diverse groups, and even different faiths, into a Beginning with ancient Rome, he demonstrates the appeal of a unifying, syncretic identity that diverse individuals can join, regardless of their ethnic or racial origins.
