This book sets out to explore the political and social potential of
intercultural policy for cities by bringing together advances in
the areas of urban planning and intercultural theory. In recent
years, demographic changes in cities in many parts of the world
have led to increasing concerns about inter-ethnic tensions, social
inequality, and racial discrimination. By virtue of their
intermediate status, cities are in a particularly good position to
design policy and programs that contribute to the well-being of all
citizens, regardless of their origins. Certain cities have made
significant advances in this domain, but until now very little work
has been done to understand the specificity of work in the area of
intercultural policy frameworks. The overall goal of this volume is
to facilitate conversations between researchers and practitioners
in their efforts to make cities more inclusive. This volume is the
result of a series of on-going collaborations between academics and
practitioners and it includes a number of original case studies
that explain the evolution of intercultural policy from the point
of view local actors. This collection will be of interest
especially to policymakers and urban planners, but also to scholars
and students in the areas of urban studies, public policy,
anthropology, sociology, globalization and social sciences more
generally. By leveraging recent advances in the field of
intercultural policy and practice, this volume sheds light on the
conditions and strategies that make intercultural cities a part of
a common future.
