Recenzii

“A fascinating and revealing account of the micro-interactions of life in a contemporary British community. It is a very timely discussion which should help to challenge simplistic stereotypes of multiculturalism ‘failing,’ urban decline, and interethnic conflict.”

Lived Diversities is a suggestive, richly textured study of everyday urban multiculture. Its engagement with issues of conflict, conviviality, and banal civility will reward and challenge researchers and practitioners working through the implications of diversity for contemporary conceptions of citizenship.”

“Husband, et al.’s, fine-grained study provides a necessary and compelling response to the corrosive but durable stereotypes of Bradford that have been circulated over the last years.”

“An intelligent and lively contribution to the critique of ‘social cohesion’ discourse in the policy sector. It provides a vivid analysis of local Bradford street life, where cars, buildings, and sounds play an integral social, cultural, and political role.”

“Successfully explores the concept of coexistence within a contemporary multiethnic urban specific space. . . . Multiple authors contest deficit discourses regarding diversity in Britain.”
