reviewed Heritage on Stage: The Invention of Ethnic Place in America's Little Switzerland on October 01, 2010
Heritage on Stage
The book discusses the currently chic "multiculturalist salad bowl," favoring the melting pot approach which "frees individuals to affiliate with groups of their own choosing and to be identified as they wish." With which I agree.
The book presents original thinking and concepts from the liberal point of view and makes fascinating non-pedantic reading.
