The Handbook of Urban Segregation scrutinises key debates on
spatial inequality in cities across the globe. It engages with
multiple domains, including residential places, public spaces and
the field of education. In addition, this comprehensive Handbook
tackles crucial group-dimensions across race, class and culture as
well as age groups, the urban rich, middle class, and gentrified
households. In a 'world tour' of urban contexts, the reader is
guided through six continents confronting pressing segregation
issues. Leading international scholars offer valuable insights
across regional, ethnic, socioeconomic and welfare regime contexts.
Three thematic parts explore key segregation questions worldwide,
the multiple domains and dimensions of the topic and the methods,
approaches and debates surrounding its measurement. Through these
lenses, this timely Handbook provides a key contribution to
understanding what urban segregation is about, why it has
developed, what its consequences are and how it is measured,
conceptualised and framed. Containing clear use of visual aids
alongside textual analysis, this Handbook will be an engaging and
accessible resource for students and scholars with an interest in
urban and human geography, cities and planning, and the wider field
of urban studies. Contributors include: R. Andersson, R. Atkinson,
