Features: This book is a specialized monograph on comparative research in multicultural education, covering the history, methods, and subjects of multicultural education, debates on the concept of multicultural education, multicultural education in Western countries and its critique, a brief history of multicultural education in China, and China's minority education policies. It is suitable for educational researchers to reference and study. Multicultural education originated as a concept in ethnic education in Western countries, but once it took shape, it became a trend in the development of ethnic education worldwide. Although China and the West have significant differences in the development of ethnic education and have long ignored each other, with the advancement of history, both have "reached the same destination through different paths" in the development of ethnic education and the coexistence of multiculturalism. Just as the distinction between "planning" and "market" is no longer a criterion for classifying whether something is "capitalist" or "socialist," multicultural education has ceased to be a "defensive" concept in the realm of image and has become an effective concept for the development of ethnic education worldwide.
