Internal Diversity - Iranian Germans Between Local Boundaries And Transnational Capital

by Sonja Moghaddari

~~3,96€~~ 3,17€ 20% OFF + 5% CARD

 <div><div><div><p>This book explores the interrelation between diversity in migrants’ internal relations and their experience of inequality in local and global contexts. Taking the case of Hamburg-based Iranians, it traces evaluation processes in ties between professionals - artists and entrepreneurs - since the 1930s, examining migrants’ potential to act upon hierarchical structures. Building on long-term ethnographic fieldwork and archival work, the book centers on differentiation, combining a diversity study with a focus on locality, with a transnational migration study, analysing strategies of capital creation and anthropological value theory.</p>The analysis of migrants’ agency tackles questions of independence and cooperation in kinship, associations, transnational entrepreneurship and cultural events within the context of the position of Germany and Iran in the global politico-economic landscape. This material will be of interest to scholars and students of anthropology, sociology, migration, urbanism and Iranian studies, as well as Iranian-Germans and those interested in the entanglement of global and local power relations. <br></div></div></div><div><br></div>

Situational Diversity - Understanding Modes Of Migration-Driven Differentiation In Urban Neighbourhoods

by Matthias Kluckmann

~~118,59€~~ 94,87€ 20% OFF + 5% CARD

 <p>At a time when diversity is taking an increasingly prominent place in public and academic debate, <i>Situational Diversity</i> offers a new perspective by understanding diversity framed in the local context, characterised through different forms of social differentiation.</p><p><br> Based on ethnographic fieldwork and archival research on migration-driven diversity in two neighbourhoods in Stuttgart (Germany) and Glasgow (United Kingdom), the book presents a concept that takes into account the contingent and emergent nature of social differentiation while at the same time explaining the stability of modes of differentiation. The comparative approach provides a nuanced analysis of how diversity in urban environments occurs as a result of locally, socially and temporally specific practices. </p><p>In this book, Klückmann discusses how social work, city administration and volunteer work prefigure positions and relations of people in the context of migration. Thus,it will appeal to students and scholars of social and cultural anthropology, European ethnology, sociology, human/cultural geography, cultural studies in addition to practitioners in the fields of intercultural relations, social and public policy as well as urban development.</p><br>
