Abstract
The position of minorities in multicultural states can be approached from a variety of different perspectives. Two important perspectives which bear upon questions of political interaction and adjustment are adopted elsewhere in this volume. They are worth summarising before a third perspective, which will be the setting of this chapter, can be introduced.

Deutsch, Nationalism and Social Communication (New York, 1953), was an early writer to stress the importance of elite incorporation for national integration Linz and Miguel refer to him in their critique of national unity in Spain, and contend that ‘it might well be that the social, cultural and political integration of a society depends on the degree of homogeneity or differentiation of the recruitment of its elites’.
