Perhaps the most pressing political issue for contemporary Europe is its transition to a multicultural society, and related question about immigration and assimilation. Learn in this episode how this process of transition began in the 1940s, and what solutions Europeans developed to try to address it along the way. In particular, we’ll see how immigrants changed the cultures of their host societies, as well as some of the backlash they experienced. Hear how soccer, music and food have played key roles in negotiating the emergence of a multicultural society.
