Everyday Multiculturalism

Amanda Wise and Selvaraj Velayutham

 

Contents:

This book explores everyday lived experiences of multiculturalism in the contemporary world. Drawing on place-based case studies, chapters in the collection focus on encounters and interactions across cultural difference in super-diverse cities to explore what it means to inhabit multiculturalism in our everyday lives. The book discusses intercultural embodiment, senses and habitus, interethnic solidarity and cultural exchange, everyday racism, multiculturalism and food, micro-publics, and the politics of place sharing. Sites of inter-ethnic encounter explored include shopping and street markets, gyms, community gardens, neighbouring, and sport. Interweaving ethnography and contemporary social and cultural theoretical approaches from disciplines such as sociology, cultural geography, anthropology and cultural studies, the collection features case studies from the UK, Europe, Australia, the US, and Asia.
