La interculturalidad en espacios universitarios multiculturales

Diversity remains a challenge for the university. Thought as a western institution that houses, promotes and disseminates "the" canon "of" knowledge-- all in the singular-- the university is increasingly interested in studying diverse knowledge that exists outside of it, in contemporary social and natural environments, but it does not manage to recognize, make visible or take advantage of the diversities and diverse knowledge that exist within its own institutionality. The present book and of its collaborative research project constitutes a first attempt to study the different expressions of diversity that and the students themselves detect within their respective university, their respective career. For this, the student actor has been chosen as the starting point for several case studies. Unlike a possible view from the civil service or the faculty, probably "contaminated" of "official" and/or "politically correct" visions of their respective HEIs, the students' perception of diversity brings new voices, sincere opinions and "Fresh" about what is perceived as positive and negative, as problematic and as enriching in terms of the presence of different cultures, languages, religions, genders, sexual identities, social classes and differentiated capacities in the university environment.
