Conclusions. .This book analyzes how the socio-demographic and cultural diversity of societies affect the social interactions and attitudes of individuals and groups within them. Focusing on Germany, where in some cities more than one third of the population are first or second-generation immigrants, it examines how this phenomenon impacts on the ways in which urban residents interact, form friendships, and come to trust or resent each other. The authors, a distinguished team of sociologists, political scientists, social psychologists, anthropologists and geographers, present the results of their wide-ranging empirical research, which combines a 3-wave-panel survey, qualitative fieldwork, area explorations and analysis of official data. In doing so, they offer representative findings and deeper insights into how residents experience different neighbourhood contexts. Their conclusions are a significant contribution to our understanding of the implications of immigration and diversity, and of the conditions and consequences of intergroup interaction. This ground-breaking work will appeal to scholars across the Social Sciences. .Global Diversities,2662-2599Emigration and immigrationSociology, UrbanSocial structureEqualityEthnologyHuman geographyPersonalityDifference (Psychology)Human MigrationUrban SociologySocial StructureSociocultural AnthropologyHuman GeographyPersonality and Differential PsychologyEmigration and immigration.Sociology, Urban.Social structure.Equality.Ethnology.Human geography.Personality.Difference (Psychology)Human Migration.Urban Sociology.Social Structure.Sociocultural Anthropology.Human Geography.Personality and Differential Psychology.304.8Schönwälder Karenauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1060197Petermann Sörenauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autHüttermann Jörgauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autVertovec Stevenauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autHewstone Milesauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autStolle Dietlindauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autSchmid Katharinaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autSchmitt Thomasauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910154848603321Diversity and Contact2511831UNINA
