"We would like to oppose the concept of a common culture with the idea of a cultural community place: a place of gathering where different ideas , opinions and life plans are presented and tried out, compete with each other, where dissent, not conformity, guarantees the expression of human possibilities without ifs and buts , where an enriching diversity is celebrated.”  

Ilya Trojanow and Ranjit Hoskote (2017, p. 16)
