Index; "Canadian and Latin American thinkers dealing with multiculturalism share the reading of the theories developed by Will Kymlycka and Charles Taylor and study how they are applied to daily life in Canada. However they differ in their interpretations, which vary greatly in Canada, Colombia and Mexico. For example, in Canada, multiculturalism mainly applies to immigrants, while in Colombia, Mexico, and most countries in Latin America, multiculturalism pertains to indigenous peoples and Afro-descendants. Hence the importance of comparing the impact of cultural and constitutional changes brought about by multiculturalism in these different contexts."
