Paper Summary:

The paper discusses how the events of September 11, 2001 forever changed how Americans view immigration, no less importantly, it changed forever how Americans view the western ideals of tolerance and cosmopolitanism. With this in mind, the paper examines whether or not it is possible to find a middle position on the tolerance continuum, which eschews the undue persecution of unpopular or even threatening groups, without conversely succumbing to an acceptance of every form of cultural manifestation we encounter. The paper argues that cosmopolitanism is a noble ideal, but one which fails to appreciate that some cultures (like certain nations) have done a much better job than others of granting rights and citizenship to all members of its society.
