FORMATHardcover LANGUAGEEnglish CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description
The Handbook of Urban Segregation scrutinises key debates on spatial inequality in cities across the globe. It engages with multiple domains, including residential places, public spaces and the field of education. In addition, this comprehensive Handbook tackles crucial group-dimensions across race, class and culture as well as age groups, the urban rich, middle class, and gentrified households. In a 'world tour' of urban contexts, the reader is guided through six continents confronting pressing segregation issues. Leading international scholars offer valuable insights across regional, ethnic, socioeconomic and welfare regime contexts. Three thematic parts explore key segregation questions worldwide, the multiple domains and dimensions of the topic and the methods, approaches and debates surrounding its measurement. Through these lenses, this timely Handbook provides a key contribution to understanding what urban segregation is about, why it has developed, what its consequences are and how it is measured, conceptualised and framed. Containing clear use of visual aids alongside textual analysis, this Handbook will be an engaging and accessible resource for students and scholars with an interest in urban and human geography, cities and planning, and the wider field of urban studies.

Review
'Sako Musterd has brought together an extraordinary group of distinguished scholars from across the world to produce a cross-national, interdisciplinary study of urban segregation. As well as providing a wealth of empirical data and methodological approaches to the study of segregation, the book makes important contributions to the analysis of globalization, neoliberalism, gentrification, and the decline of the welfare state. Yet, while attributing much to these general processes, it also distinguishes the varying effects of particular local and national policies.'--Susan S. Fainstein, Harvard Graduate School of Design, US'This book presents new points of departure for debates about segregation. Its chapters provide original, cross-disciplinary, research-based accounts using different frameworks to build on earlier work. They explore economic, policy and other factors that drive changing patterns of urban segregation in different cities and countries and analyse how the various dimensions of segregation are overlapping and reinforcing. The book provides new insights and a new baseline that make it essential reading for anyone concerned with urban research and policy.'--Alan Murie, University of Birmingham, UK'Social segregation is a wide-ranging and important phenomenon within cities across the world. The implications are profound in terms of social interaction as well as access to employment, housing, education, health, transport and open space. This valuable edited collection examines the variations in segregation in a variety of different cities and contexts and will be an important source for staff and students.'--Chris Hamnett, King's College London, UK and UESTC, Chengdu, China
