Multiculturalism and the City. The Union of Generations, the Strength of Education and the Attitude to Immigration from the Qualitative Research Perspective

Summary/Abstract: In this article, we pose a question about the social foundations on which a multicultural society in Poland can be built and what type of multiculturalism it will be. As a result of the intensifying globalization processes in the contemporary world, many immigrants from foreign countries, culturally and often racially different, are now coming to Poland. Through their presence in this country, they contribute to the construction of cultural diversity, i.e. contemporary multiculturalism understood both in objective terms as cultural diversity and in axiological terms as acceptance of this diversity premised on the ability to function within it. We analyze the attitudes of Poles towards immigrants who belong to the groups that are culturally different from the indigenous majority. The analysis’ purpose is to compare the views about the openness to otherness that people with the same level of education but belonging to different generations hold.
