Sommario/riassunto

Recent debates about national identity, belonging and community cohesion can appear to suggest that ethnicity is a static entity and that ethnic difference is a source of conflict in itself - Ethnicities and Values in a Changing World presents an alternative account of ethnicity. It will appeal not only to sociologists, but to anyone working in the fields of



cultural studies, race and ethnicity, globalization, migration and anthropology.
