The study of 'divided societies' has focused, historically, on
either ethnic divides in colonial (or post-colonial) societies or
on developed Western democracies which have ethnic power-sharing
Government structures. The study of divided societies emerged
historically at a moment when there was a growing interest in the
study of immigration and inter-ethnic relations in developed
industrial nations. These two sets of literature on divided
societies and on immigration and inter-ethnic relations have
developed largely in isolation from each other. Both sets of
literature have also tended to focus on inter-ethnic relations, and
have paid much less attention to migration. This edited collection
sets out to fill this gap in the literature through examining
migration and ethnic division. The case studies examined include
developed industrial nations (Canada and Norway), a post-colonial
country (Kenya) and three cases which feature regularly in the
'divided societies' literature (Bosnia, Northern Ireland and
Israel). Taken together, these case-studies suggest ways in which
migration intersects with and complicates ethnic divides in
'divided societies'. This book was published as a special issue of
Ethnopolitics.
