Superdiversity in the heart of Europe

The book moves beyond a simple focus on ethnicity or country of origin to identify multiple differences including migration status, class, language and transnational networks. Superdiversity in the heart of Europe tries to understand the transition from multiculturalism to superdiversity in Belgium using Steven Vertovec's superdiversity as an emerging theory, in combination with the work of Ulrich Beck and a variety of scholars. The book is of value to those researching superdiversity elsewhere in Europe and in those countries that are beginning to experience the arrival of more people from more places and the complexification of their populations.
