Urban Social Segregation

---

Urban Social Segregation covers the frontier where the spatial aspects of sociology overlap the social aspects of geography. It collects, with a full-scale introduction, a series of papers on the spatial distribution of social groups in a variety of urban environments and on the extent of their intermixing. The book not only examines these phenomena but also shows how the concept and methodology of them have emerged and developed. There are papers that measure the degree of spatial segregation between different socio-economic groups. Some items show how increasing assimilation is reflected in decreasing segregation; others show how changes over time in the hostility between groups are reflected in changes in the degree of spatial separation between them. There are papers showing how most marriages are between partners living close to each other, and papers using this to explain the impact of segregation on in-marriage. Another area of study is the degree to which negro segregation in the USA is explained by class rather than color. Three further papers use Markov Chains and Monte Carlo simulations to project the spatial expansion of American ghettos. A valuable feature of the book is the wide range of areas covered; these include the USA, particularly New York and Chicago; the United Kingdom, particularly Northern Ireland; Australia, New Zealand, and the West Indies.
