Far from being an external factor of society, this volume shows how diversity has become an integral part of people's lives. Editor(s): Harzig, Christiane; Juteau, Danielle; Schmitt, Irina. BIC Classification: JFS. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. .
