About the concept of cultural pluralism other uses of the term Pluralism disambiguation Cultural pluralism is a term used when smaller groups within a larger society maintain their unique cultural identities, and their values and practices are accepted by the wider culture. One example is Lebanon where 18 different religious communities co exist on a land of 10,452 km . In a pluralist culture, unique groups not only co exist side by side, but also consider qualities of other groups as traits worth having in the dominant culture. The current contemporary art world in the 21st century is an example of cultural pluralism, with a variety of styles existing side by side. For another example, a community center in the United States may offer classes in Indian yoga , Chinese calligraphy , and Latin salsa dancing . That community may also have one or more synagogue s, mosque s, mandir s, gurudwara s, and or Buddhist temple s, as well as several churches of various Christian denominations. The existence of such institutions and practices are possible if the cultural communities responsible for them are protected by law and or accepted by the larger society in a pluralist culture. The idea of cultural pluralism in America has its roots in the transcendentalist movement and was developed by pragmatist philosophers such as William James and John Dewey , and later thinkers such as Horace Kallen and Randolph Bourne . One of the most famous articulations of cultural pluralistic ideas can be found in Bourne s 1916 essay Trans National America . ref Science Encyclopedia http science.jrank.org pages 10750 Pluralism Cultural Pluralism.html Cultural Pluralism Retrieved on May 31, 2007 ref References Reflist See also Multiculturalism Category PluralismPluralism Category Social theories Culture stub Socio stub el es Pluralismo cultural ja sh Kulturni pluralizam ... more details

About the concept of legal pluralism other uses of the term Pluralism disambiguation Legal pluralism is the existence of multiple legal system s within one geographic area. Plural legal systems are particularly prevalent in former colonies , where the law of a former colonial authority may exist alongside more traditional legal systems. When these systems developed, the idea was that certain issues e.g., commercial law commercial transactions would be covered by colonial law, while other issues e.g., family law family and marriage would be covered by traditional law. Over time, these distinctions tended to break down and individuals would choose to bring their legal claims under the system that they thought would offer them the best advantage. Legal pluralism also occurs when different laws govern different groups within a country. For example, in India and Tanzania , there are special Islamic courts that address concerns in Muslim communities by following Islamic law principles. Secular courts deal with the issues of other communities. It is important to note that modern Western legal systems can also be pluralistic. ref See Griffiths, John 1986 What is Legal Pluralism in Journal of Legal Pluralism 24 1 55. ref It is, thus, misleading to discuss legal pluralism only in relation to non Western legal systems.

If the country becomes polarized, then the curve becomes one with two main humps and looks like a bimodal distribution , with the power at the far political left and political right right ends, and a severe dip in the middle one side will have more influence than the other, creating a strong trend to follow them. There is speculation that a nation with such a distribution, effectively having two highly separate approaches with no compromise positions in the middle, becomes difficult to govern.

Judaism Religious pluralism is a set of religious world views that hold that one s religion is not the sole and exclusive source of truth, and thus recognizes that some level of truth and value exists in other religions. As such, religious pluralism goes beyond religious tolerance, which is the condition of peaceful existence between adherents of different religions or religious denominations. Within the Jewish community there lies a common history, a shared language of prayer, a shared Bible and a shared set of rabbinic literature , thus allowing for Jews of significantly different world views to share some common values and goals. Classical Jewish views General classical views on other religions Traditionally, Jews believe that God chose the Jewish people to be in a Jews as a chosen people unique covenant with God , described by the Torah itself, with particular obligations and responsibilities elucidated in the Oral Torah . Sometimes this choice is seen as charging the Jewish people with a specific mission &mdash to be a light unto the nations, and to exemplify the Covenant biblical covenant with God as described in the Torah. This view, however, did not preclude a belief that God has a relationship with other peoples &mdash rather, Judaism held that God had entered into a covenant with all mankind, and that Jews and non Jews alike have a relationship with God.

Unreferenced date December 2006 orphan date November 2009 Omniism is an esoteric ontological term coined in 1996 by James Anthony Ciomperlik to describe the most extreme version of Pluralism. That is, the concept that there is an unlimited variety of fundamental substances. In this context, Omniism is directly opposed to Nihilism . It sits in contrast with the concepts of monism , dualism and Pluralism philosophy pluralism in metaphysics . New Age Religious Use Omniism is also a New Age religious view that adopts the idea of Quantum superposition into an actively questioning agnosticism in a way that results in a philosophy similar to Quakers and the Society of Friends , but with no affiliation, real or stated, to any branch of any existing religion as Quakers are with Christianity and Protestantism beyond Its follower s personal decisions. Its core philosophy is that all religions may be correct and incorrect in their views of the structure of the universe concurrently. It allows and encourages the Omniist to explore all possible religious systems of belief and practice as though they were true, but asks that they be approached with skepticism. People who subscribe to Omniism as their religious view practice their personal religious beliefs as they see fit based on their observation and adaptation of their explorations into religious systems. In Omniist thought the idea of God is relatively interchangeable with the idea of choice one chooses what they believe, and how they believe it, but are always allowed to change this choice based on observation and their choices in response to that observations. Ian Paul Garrett first described the religious form of Omniism in 1998. Omniism has no official organizational model or physical manifestation.
