Multiculturalism, Nation and Globalisation: Movements for Social Transformation

Project

Principal investigator	Carl-Ulrik Schierup (REMESO Project Leader), Aleksandra Ålund (Scientifically Responsible), Anders Neergaard (Participants from REMESO), Lisa Kings (Participants from REMESO)
Description	The project explores research and debates on multiculturalism, social cohesion and liberal values in academic discourse, policy documents and the media. It scrutinises discourses voicing anxiety over "multiculturalism" in societies marked by the erosion of citizenship, urban revolts among disadvantaged migrant youth, an ongoing nationalist-populist alignment and exclusivist policies of migration and "integration".
