The authors build upon the concept of multiculturalism which seeks for possible ways to enable different cultures to coexist and the means of communication between them.

In the introduction part, the authors explain the importance of increased attention and interest in the area of multiculturalism.

This way of thinking and acting was transferred to almost all areas of life (economic, political, and educational) and it is applied in the context of schools, societies, and enterprises as well.
