The article stresses two strong points in the essay by Chin/Levey: first, the emphasis on the symbolic dimension of the multicultural project, and second, the novel understanding of recognition as an acknowledgment of minority members as full citizens in the polity. The comments then focus on (1) Charles Taylor's view of recognition as equal respect for culture; (2) politicizing differences; (3) the distinction between recognition and rights (4) social standards.
