The paper is a sociological-political attempt to analyze the problems of multiculturalism, especially the rights to preserve one's own culture within the dominating one, as it takes place in Australia. The author pinpoints that Australian achievements as regards the principles of multiculturalism and human rights surpass many other countries with pluralistic systems.
