This title was first published in 2002: Over the past fifty years,
numerous geographical concepts and methodologies have been
developed to study urban segregation. This volume brings together
an international team of scholars, practitioners and policy makers
to examine the latest of these. The first section of this
fascinating book sees contributors proposing innovative ideas and
new conceptual models for the study of segregation in cities that
undergo globalization. They assess the idea that segregation should
be studied for individuals in respect to different spatial
resolutions, including the study of the formation of inter-ethnic
spatial networks. This is followed by an examination of questions
concerning the associations among segregation, poverty and
policies. The final section highlights patterns of segregation in
four countries: South Africa, China, Canada and the Ruhr area, each
of them representing different multicultural and transformational
aspects. They also emphasize the socio-historical context in which
patterns of segregation and desegregation appeared.
