UPTAP/PGRG Sessions on 'Migration, Mixing and Ethnic Integration'
at the RGS-IBG Conference, Manchester 26-27 August 2009
 PresentationsConvened by In Britain and other European countries, recent years have seen a shift in ethnic integration policy from multiculturalism to community cohesion. With this shift has come a renewed emphasis on place and residential mixing. This session explored two themes of these debates. The first theme was patterns of settlement of immigrants and their subsequent migrations that are changing sub-national ethnic geographies. What factors and processes influence these patterns of settlement and migrations? Do they differ between ethnic/migrant groups? What are their implications for ethnic integration, residentially and otherwise? The second theme of the session was the meaning of ethnic residential mixing. Is residential mixing associated with greater integration in other spheres? What are the causal connections between the residential composition of areas and structural and social integration in these locales and beyond?
