Multiculturalism And Justice: A Deconstructive Approach

Abstract

This paper deals with the idea of multiculturalism in the modern context of nation building, where ethics and politics have to be understood and conditioned in the domain of liberty and freedom. Contemporary global political scenario seems to be rejuvenated by the influence of mass media, instigating, convincing, and accentuating the contextual perspective of justice. This contextual or contemporary notion of justice is the very question that withholds any established theories of justice to function and apply. Therefore, concepts like ‘diversity’, ‘difference’ is the core principle that partially rebel the prevailing liberal democracy, and also that reside within the idea of multiculturalism as dynamics of justice. Thus, here we are trying to make explicit the deconstructive understanding of justice as functioning in the understanding of multiculturalism.
