Ethnic Segregation in Cities

First published in 1981, Ethnic Segregation in Cities argues that race and ethnicity are fundamental to writing about the city, and that economic patterns adapt themselves to race and ethnicity rather than vice versa. The problem of ethnic segregation is a burning one for both geographers and sociologists – geographers because of the concern for all aspects of urban deprivation, and sociologists because they are discovering that space and spatial processes are important factors in influencing social segregation or assimilation. The book brings together some of the main contributors to the literature on spatial aspects of ethnicity from both sides of the Atlantic. A variety of evidence from New York, Detroit, Bradford and Blackburn address the question of whether choice on the path of ethnic members, or constraints imposed by the host society are determinant factors influencing residential segregation. This book will be of interest to students of sociology, human geography and urban studies.
