The 21st century has highlighted major dilemmas on how to best manage diversity in our increasingly plural societies. Various strategies for managing diversity have been promoted to address this challenge including assimilation, colorblindness, and multiculturalism. However, empirical evidence has revealed that each poses weaknesses for intergroup relations. As a result, policy-makers and political theorists have promoted interculturalism as an alternate strategy that addresses new and emerging realities revolving around superdiversity, cultural fusions, and mixed forms of identity. In the current paper, we explore interculturalism as a pro-diversity ideology that takes a more dynamic view of cultural identity where individuals belonging to different social groups are supported to interact and influence each other leading to new and complex self-understandings. We consider the meaning and conceptualization of interculturalism, its psychological correlates, its implications for intergroup relations, and how minority group members perceive interculturalism. Given that empirical research on interculturalism is in its infancy, we further consider gaps in our understanding of the topic and suggest avenues for future research.

跨文化主义作为管理多样性的策略:超越色盲和多元文化主义的心理研究

21 世纪凸显了在我们日益多元化的社会中如何最好地管理多样性的主要困境。为应对这一挑战,已经推广了各种管理多样性的策略,包括同化、色盲和多元文化。然而,经验证据表明,每个人都对群际关系构成弱点。因此,政策制定者和政治理论家将跨文化主义作为一种替代战略来解决围绕超级多样性、文化融合和混合形式身份的新兴现实。在目前的论文中,我们探索跨文化主义作为一种支持多样性的意识形态,它对文化认同采取更动态的观点,支持属于不同社会群体的个人相互影响和互动,从而导致新的复杂的自我理解。我们考虑了跨文化主义的意义和概念化、它的心理关联、它对群体间关系的影响,以及少数群体成员如何看待跨文化主义。鉴于对跨文化主义的实证研究还处于起步阶段,我们进一步考虑了我们对该主题的理解中的差距,并为未来的研究提出了建议。
