"What is meant by community? Is there a balance between equality, integration and diversity? Does the idea of identity undermine community cohesion? "
This book debates these questions and explores the concept of identity and how its different meanings and interpretations impact upon community policy. The chapters bring together leading academics, policymakers, think-tank representatives and community workers to debate the connections between ethnic diversity, identity and community cohesion.
