Recenzii
'In an area that has generated more heat than light, Uslaner provides piercing insights and a masterly overview of a complex and sprawling literature.' Miles Hewstone, University of Oxford
'How can we build trust in societies that are inexorably becoming more diverse? Crunching data from five nations - Australia, Canada, Sweden, the UK, and the US - Eric Uslaner argues that governments that want to boost trust must reduce segregation. Thoroughly researched and provocatively written, this book makes a major contribution to our understanding of one of the biggest issues of our age. Its breadth of empirical analysis and depth of scholarship make it vital reading for policy makers and scholars everywhere.' Dr Andrew Leigh MP, Parliament of Australia
'Segregation and Mistrust is an unusually important book for both social science and social policy. Uslaner emphasizes the critical role of group segregation. And he emphatically answers the widely publicized claim that diversity inevitably leads to mistrust and prejudice. With data from five nations, Uslaner emphasizes the critical role of segregation.' Thomas Pettigrew, University of California, Santa Cruz

Descriere
By examining social networks in North America, Europe and Australia, this book argues segregation, not diversity reduces trust between people.
