...and "forced" multiculturalism can bring with it serious social disequilibrium.
Oh, but your are a product (me too) of multiculturalism of the past. How many nations lived in Iberia that we have a records of? Celts, Romans, Vandals...., I'm pretty sure you can finish the list better than I.
You wouldn't be what you are now if not the multiculturalism of the past. And I believe that all of them were forced!
Do you hate yourself for this? I'm pretty sure you are a proud Iberian, though you are different than inhabitants 3 000 or 2 000 years ago. I'm sure if your forebears could get up and see Iberia these days they would be disgusted. Somewhat different looking people, different gods, different language, different culture, you name it, even food tastes different. They would love economic progress I guess, but the rest a big disgrace, and desecration of their land. After back from the future they would have a hell of a hard time dieing for their country, culture and gods. Stuff that won't exist in short future.
I agree that if we have a choice of mingling with other cultures we should pick ones that benefit ours and don't create conflicts.
