Global Diversities
Series Editors: Steven Vertovec, Director at the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity and Honorary Joint Professor of Sociology and Ethnology, University of Gottingen, Germany and Peter van der Veer, Director at the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity and Professor-at-Large at Utrecht University, The Netherlands. Over the past decade, the concept of “diversity” has gained a leading place in academic thought, business practice, politics and public policy across the world. However, local conditions and meanings of “diversity” are highly dissimilar and changing. For these reasons, deeper and more comparative understandings of pertinent concepts, processes and phenomena are in great demand. This series will examine multiple forms and configurations of diversity; how these have been conceived, imagined and represented; how they have been or could be regulated or governed; how different processes of inter-ethnic or inter-religious encounter unfold; how conflicts arise and how political solutions are negotiated and practiced; and what truly convivial societies might actually look like. By comparatively examining a range of conditions, processes and cases revealing the contemporary meanings and dynamics of “diversity,” this series will be a key resource for students and professional social scientists. It will represent a landmark within a field that has become, and will continue to be, one of the foremost topics of global concern throughout the 21st century. Reflecting this multi-disciplinary field, the series will include works from Anthropology, Political Science, Sociology, Law, Geography and Religious Studies. The series publishes standard monographs, edited collections and Palgrave Pivot titles, for shorter works that are between 25,000 and 30,000 words.
