“The book deserves the attention of all those who wish to see the standard questions in the Anglo-American theory of multiculturalism debated from an Australian perspective, against the background of its distinctive history, demography, and party politics.”  ·  Nationalities Papers"It is certainly the best and most serious book on Australian multiculturalism ever published."  ·  James Jupp, Director of the Centre for Immigration & Multicultural Studies, Australian National University"What strikes the reader straight away is the quality of the contributors coming from a range of disciplines both within and beyond political theory and the organisation of the text itself. Overall, Political Theory and Australian Multiculturalism is a valuable contribution to understanding Australia's unique experience of multiculturalism in international context and goes a long way to awakening debates about multiculturalism in political theory and other disciplines."  ·  Australian Journal of Political Science“All of the essays are thoughtful and well written. Taken together, they provide a helpful overview of the intellectual milieu within which Australian multiculturalism has arisen and evolved.”  ·  International Migration & Integration
