2004 Un Article Multiculturalism
HUMAN DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2004
Cultural Liberty in Today’s Diverse World
Accommodating people’s growing demands for their inclusion in society, for respect of their
ethnicity, religion, and language, takes more than democracy and equitable growth. Also needed
are multicultural policies that recognize differences, champion diversity and promote cultural
freedoms, so that all people can choose to speak their language, practice their religion, and
participate in shaping their culture so that all people can choose to be who they are.

In our diverse world more than two-thirds of countries have minority groups that make up more
than 10% of their population, and nearly a billion people belong to groups subject to some form
of exclusion. Human Development Report 2004: Cultural Liberty in Today’s Diverse World
argues that states must actively devise multicultural policies to prevent discrimination on cultural
groundsreligious, ethnic and linguistic. The expansion of cultural freedoms, not suppression, is
the only sustainable option to promote stability, democracy and human development within and
across societies. Such policies are not always simple, but many countries are making headway.
The Report debunks the myths that have been used to deny expansions of cultural freedoms,
showing that diversity is not a threat to state unity, not the source of inevitable “clashes”, not an
obstacle to development. Instead, it is at the core of human developmentthe ability of people
to choose who they are. The Report presents a path-breaking framework to examine issues that
leap from the headlines to the forefront of the international policy agenda: migration, predatory
extremism, customary law and cultural diversity. In its 15th year, the annual Human
Development Report continues to frame debates on the most pressing challengesnew and
old—for enabling people to live full and creative lives. Human Development Report 2004… •
Features an analysis of the vital links between human development and cultural liberty by Nobel
Laureate Amartya Sen. • Identifies living mode exclusions as well as political, economic and
social exclusions (participation exclusion) faced by culturally identified groups. • Presents
cutting-edge multicultural approaches covering power-sharing, religious and secular states,
language policy, legal pluralism and affirmative action. • Analyzes the rise of coercive
movements for cultural domination and their challenges to democracies. • Examines key areas of
policy for cultural diversity and globalization, including traditional knowledge, trade in cultural
goods and migration. • Includes special contributions from Shirin Ebadi, John Hume, Hamid
Karzai, Nelson Mandela and Ole Henrik Magga.
