Minorities in European Cities

This collection studies the behavior of immigrants in increasingly globalized European cities. Studying European neighborhoods from the point of view of immigrants challenged by economic restructuring, the book simultaneously explores two topics: the integration and exclusion of immigrants and the evolution of European cities confronted by globalization.
