A better pluralism? The example of Louis Adamic

Article Abstract:

An analysis is presented on the works of Slovenian-born author Louis Adamic, who wrote about multiculturalism and the immigrant experience in the US during the 1930s and 1940s. Adamic advocated acceptance rather than tolerance, and valued distinctly different opinions rather than persuasive consensus.
