After the Cosmopolitan?

Multicultural Cities and the Future of Racism

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In "After the Cosmopolitan "Michael Keith argues that both racial divisions and intercultural dialogue can only be understood in the context of the urban cities that gave them birth. The author addresses debates in cultural theory and urban studies about the growth of cultural industries and the marketing of cities, the debates around social exclusion and violence, the big debate in the US around the nature of the ghetto, the cross disciplinary conceptualization of cultural hybridity, and the politics of third way social policy.
