Part 6/8:
Ahmed’s reflections raise critical questions about the sustainability of multiculturalism. He posits that genuine multicultural coexistence requires shared values that transcend ethnic lines, yet highlights the fact that many cultures arriving in Sweden clash fundamentally with its laws and ideals. Asserting that some interpretations of Islam oppose the values held by liberal democracies, he argues for an honest dialogue about these disparities.
Through his personal experiences and observations, Ahmed paints a portrait of a deeply problematic social experiment where the idea of multiculturalism lacks the necessary foundations for success, leading to increasing tensions and societal divisions.
