{"product_id":"comparing-super-diversity-fran-meissner-9781138098879","title":"Comparing Super-Diversity","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe concept of 'super-diversity' has received considerable attention since it was introduced in \u003ci\u003eEthnic and Racial Studies\u003c\/i\u003e in 2007, reflecting a broadening interest in finding new ways to talk about contemporary social complexity. This book brings together a collection of essays which empirically and theoretically examine super-diversity and the multi-dimensional shifts in migration patterns to which the notion refers. These shifts entail a worldwide diversification of migration channels, differentiations of legal statuses, diverging patterns of gender and age, and variance in migrants' human capital. Across the contributions, super-diversity is subject to two modes of comparison: (a) side-by-side studies contrasting different places and emergent conditions of super-diversity; and (b) juxtaposed arguments that have differentially found use in utilizing or criticizing 'super-diversity' descriptively, methodologically or with reference to policy and public practice. The contributions discuss super-diversity and its implications in nine cities located in eight countries and four continents. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book was originally published as a special issue of \u003ci\u003eEthnic and Racial Studies.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fran Meissner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138098876\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138098879\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/07\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 138\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.30d","brand":"Fran Meissner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48087703552255,"sku":"9781138098879","price":63.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b9a3d1b2-018a-4f03-9872-f813541ca336.jpg?v=1769100928","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/comparing-super-diversity-fran-meissner-9781138098879","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
