Produktbeschreibung
The present book is based on articles that were presented and initially published in the Bulgarian Comparative Education Society in the last few years, which has been an important forum for discussing diversity and its potentials and challenges for organizations, including educational ones. The main argument is that multicultural thinking can help devise concrete ways to tap on the advantages of having a culturally diverse environment and to competently respond to it. We contend that educating future teachers, managers, engineers and other professionals in a multicultural perspective can be a central asset in order to attain that aim, particularly in an increasingly diverse contemporary world. Multicultural organizations arguably mitigate organizational situations in which envy could potentially flourish therefore contributing to fostering organizational conduct that leads to institutional social responsibility. The authors hope the book can provide food for thought so as to helpturn organizational environments into nurturing, multicultural sites for human growth and development.
