Multiculturalism is not a universalizable strategy, nor can it be reduced to a single model. This article presents multiculturalism as a set of solutions that vary in the way they manage diversity in ethnically and culturally plural societies. This is a comparative analysis pointing out the flaws and difficulties around this concept, but also some significant benefits.
