Shamus Rahman Khan Quotes

Though The Elite Have Been Opened, And Have Opened Themselves To The World, The World Has Not Opened To All. Access Is Not The Same As Integration. But What Is Crucial Is That No One Is Explicitly Excluded. The Effect Is To Blame Non-elites For Their Lack Of Interest. As We Have Seen, The Result Of This Logic Is Damning. The Distinction Between The Elites And The Rest Of Us Appears To Be A Choice. It Is Cosmopolitanism That Explains Elite Status To Elites And Closed-mindedness That Explains Those Who Choose Not To Participate. What Matters Are Individual Attributes And Capacities, Not Durable Inequalities. From This Point Of View, Those Who Are Not Successful Are Not Necessarily Disadvantaged; They Are Simply Those Who Have Failed To Seize The Opportunities Afforded By Our New, Open Society.
