Inhaltsangabe

This Modern Guide examines how to achieve inclusive and sustainable development in shrinking regions. Leading experts explore solutions for the socio-economic challenges in these areas while also re-thinking migration and integration policies.

Chapters assess welcoming initiatives across Europe, evaluating how those that engage with migrant newcomers contribute to economic, political and social prosperity in their respective localities. Identifying factors that limit the success of welcoming initiatives, such as fragmentation and challenges in scaling support, contributors illustrate how progress is constrained beyond the local level. This Modern Guide highlights the need for new criteria to define community belonging, based on people’s contributions to their community rather than legal or normative assumptions of belonging. Analysing how migrant newcomers and long-term residents can integrate into a diverse and cohesive community, authors present methods for learning from comparison and scaling up initiatives.

Innovative and timely, A Modern Guide to Migration and Spatial Justice in Europe is a crucial resource for students and scholars of geography, anthropology, sociology, politics and public policy, as well as urban and regional studies. Policymakers will also benefit from its insights into social justice action.
