European and North American societies are facing deep social fractures—not because of diversity itself but because the old multicultural framework can no longer sustain modern reality.
Drawing on the influential work of Elias, Mansouri, and Swaid, this episode breaks down the mounting tension between passive multiculturalism and active intercultural dialogue. We explore why the shift isn’t academic jargon—it’s a live fault line shaping political conflict, social cohesion, and the future architecture of Western democracies.
A sharp, accessible decoding of an emerging global crisis.
