Catchword for “leitkultur”
Catchword: leitkultur
Filed under: ,
Part of speechn.
The part of speech reflects that used in the full entry, and not necessarily the part of speech as it is used in the quotation below.
Quotation: There has been much talk in recent months of the emerging Spasskultur—roughly translatable as “fun ethos,” and not to be confused with Leitkultur. The latter is an undefined mishmash of traditional German values with which, according to some conservative politicians, immigrants should be force-fed.
