«La dernière utopie» is the philosophical essay by Caroline Fourest, published by Grasset in paperback (300 pages, in French).
The work analyses the crisis of universalism and multiculturalism after 9/11. It shows how some states invoke «national circumstances» or religious respect to limit human rights and freedom of expression. It contrasts the French model with debates in Canada, Brazil or South Africa on how far to tolerate practices such as excision.
Work published in 2009. The subtitle appears as «Menaces sur l'universalisme» on some covers and as «Universel et crise du multiculturalisme» on others.
For readers interested in political philosophy, secularism and the debate on multiculturalism and human rights.
