5.0 out of 5 stars
wonderful and revolutionary, December 29, 2007
This review is from: The Home We Build Together: Recreating Society (Hardcover)
England's most influential Jewish leader has crafted a wonderful critique of multi-culturalism and argued for erecting a new conccept of identity in its place. He argues that multi-culturalism has fragmented society and although the ideas behind it were noble the outcome has been brutal. Instead we need a new society that will emphasize heritage withotu causing hate and identity politics and will recreate religion outside politics.
A very interesting and pursuasive text that is worth reading and has wide ramifications for countries outside the UK.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Significant & Strategic Book for the 21st Century, March 30, 2008
This review is from: The Home We Build Together: Recreating Society (Hardcover)
I cannot recommend this book enough. As pastor of a church, I've pushed my members to read it, young pastors to read it, people of different faiths that I work with around the world. The ideas presented are a way forward for our future. The concept of "side-by-side" sweating and engagement is the only way we will ever survive the polarization of society. If you've read my book Glocalization - you will love this - read it!
