Despite the ethnic diversity within each nation, the social fabric of the region by and large is one.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Ethnic diversity adds richness to a society.
Human cultural diversity is vast; the range of cultural practices, beliefs, and languages that we speak is vast.
What happens in one region affects people across the world.
'Diversity' is a wonderfully seductive word. It stresses differences rather than commonalities. Diverse people worldwide are mostly engaged in hating each other - that is, when they are not killing each other. A 'diverse,' peaceful or stable society is against most historical precedent.
Following the Second World War, we are a country of one ethnicity. After the moving of the borders, after the tragedy of the Holocaust and the murder of Polish Jews, we don't have large minority groups.
Today different ethnic groups and different nations come together due to common sense.
I'm fascinated by how ethnic communities have assimilated into massive capitalist environments.
Europe itself is an embodiment of this diversity.
Minorities within nation-states frayed by global capitalism are naturally more resentful of hollowed-out but still heavily centralised systems of political and economic domination.
A community having the breadth and scope of a people still cannot claim to be an ethnic community unless and until there emerges from its mentality a distinctive culture particularized by the community's special character.
