At The Futures Company, we believe that to assess a society’s degree of multiculturalism solely in terms
of demographic data is to overlook the attitudinal prerequisites of inter-cultural influence and thus of true
multiculturalism. Large population numbers only create more opportunities for interaction and influence;
they do not in themselves create a multicultural society. Inter-cultural and inter-ethnic influence grows from
the combination of increasing numbers and increasing cultural openness. In order to gauge accurately
how multicultural a society is, and therefore how far one can push an inclusive versus a targeted
marketing strategy and still effectively reach all of the racial and ethnic segments in a marketplace, you
need to measure and track cultural openness. This is as true today as it will be in 2042.
