Book excerpt: Cultural diversity, in all its forms, is posing a profound challenge to traditional cultural policy, and this shift from homogeneity to diversity requires a rethinking of the processes, mechanisms and relationships necessary for democratic policy development in culturally diverse societies. This report follows on from an earlier publication (2001, ISBN 9287146497) on the first phase of a transversal study on cultural diversity, focusing on the countries of East Central, South East and Eastern Europe, with national reports from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Hungary, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Romania, the Russian Federation, Ukraine, Serbia and Montenegro.
