1. APA Style: In-text citations (author/date) and corresponding Reference List entry
Book
In-text citation Example:
Although Canada’s multicultural policy is liberal and democratic in its goals, there are reasons to be skeptical about its value. Detractors argue that the state should not enshrine differences into policy, but should rather aim to treat everyone the same, or more accurately, provide conditions such that all members of society can have access to equal opportunities (Barry, 2001). One could even argue that a multicultural policy magnifies cultural differences instead of promoting homogenous diversity. The policy has also been attacked for promoting the interests of the English-Canadian majority (Day & Sadick, 2002). Mitchel (1996) goes even further with this, arguing that it is a policy designed to further the capitalist interests of the “elites”.
At the core of the argument, however, is the question of whether or not the policy is any good…
