This book analyses the ways in which residents of deprived and mixed neighbourhoods live with diversity and the active and creative ways in which diversity is 'micro-regulated'. By deliberately taking an international perspective on the daily lives of residents in diversified urban neighbourhoods, this book uncovers the ways in which national and local contexts shape living in diversity.

This edited collection provides a comparative international perspective on superdiversity in cities, with explicit attention given to social inequality and social exclusion on a neighbourhood level. Focusing on the active and creative ways in which residents come together, the book uncovers the ways in which national and local contexts shape living in diversity.
