Conceptions of tolerance
- There's much disagreement
about what tolerance requires in
practise
- STRONGEST conception = esteem
- Finding value in some aspects of social
difference - seeing it as a good thing
- e.g. rap music and culture can be seen
to show a resistance to marginalism of
black/ethnic minorities
- Respect
- Acceptance of the rights of individuals
to pursue their own cultural values
- e.g. Black History
Month
- Co-existence
- Where a large number of minorities are
able exist peacefully (most of the time)
- e.g. the religious make up of the UK -
all religions exist relatively peacefully
- WEAKEST CONCEPTION = permission
- Where a majority culture permits a
minority culture to exist
- e.g. in Reading the majority culture of white,
British people permit the minority culture of
Polish people to exist within the community
