Across Europe, multiculturalism as a public policy has been
declared 'dead' but, everyday multiculture is alive and well. This
book explores how people live with diversity in contemporary cities
and towns across Europe. Drawing on ethnographic studies ranging
from London's inner city and residential suburbs to English
provincial towns, from a working-class neighbourhood in Nuremberg
to the streets of Naples, Turin and Milan, chapters explore how
diversity is experienced in everyday lives, and what new forms of
local belonging emerge when local places are so closely connected
to so many distant elsewheres. The book discusses the sensory
experiences of diversity in urban street markets, the ethos of
mixing in a super-diverse neighbourhood, contestations over the
right to the provincial city, diverse histories and experiences of
residential geographies, memories of belonging, and the ethics and
politics of representation on an inner city estate. It weaves
together ethnographic case studies with contemporary social and
cultural theory from the disciplines of anthropology, sociology,
geography, cultural studies, and migration studies about urban
space, migration, transnationalism and everyday multiculture. This
book was originally published as a special issue of Identities:
Global Studies in Culture and Power.
