Comparative European Research in migration, diversity and identities

By: Wolfgang Bosswick,Charles Husband

This volume presents contributions related to a selection of lectures held at a series of European Summer Schools on Migration, Diversity and Identities. This European Summer School programme has been developed as part of a doctoral programme by the group Migration, Multiculturality and Ethnic Conflict within the Thematic Network Humanitarian Development Studies, HumanitarianNet. Amongst its first activities, this group conducted in 1997 a survey on existing courses and units on migration and integration among the participating universities. Based on the data generated, the group developed modules for European Summer Schools for PhD students doing their PhD research in the field of migration or integration of migrants. The Summer Schools of the programme are integral part of a European Doctoral Programme on Migration, Diversity and Identities which aims to encourage a European exposure of PhD students and to support networking among the young researchers on the European level. The European Doctoral Programme was developed by the Migration Group within HumanitarianNet in the context of the Bologna process and the TUNING project of the EU Commission according to the recommendations fo the European Conference of University Rectors. It is now linked to the new European Network of Excellence IMISCOE which assembles 19 European key research institutes on Migration Integration and Social Cohesion. The selected lectures are focusing on three major aspects for comparative research on a European level: Firstly, some theoretical and conceptual discussion on migration, diversity and identities, themes which gave the programme its very name. Secondly, on the relation between migration processes, their consequences, and the sphere of politics and policy making. Finally, —since the programme also intended to support young researchers in their PhD project— two papers on methodological problems which emerge when doing comparative research on migration at a European level.

Social Cohesion and Counter-terrorism

A Policy Contradiction?

By: Charles Husband,Yunis Alam

This book offers a research-based contribution to the debate around community cohesion and counter-terrorism policies in Britain. It is based upon privileged access to staff and elected members at five major local authorities, and upon qualitative interviews with a diverse range of individuals from differing ethnic communities who live and work in these areas. Social Cohesion and Counter-Terrorism provides an empirically led critical contribution to the understanding of current policies that have a direct impact upon the experiences of citizens in multi-ethnic urban contexts. It addresses the culpability of the central government in its construction of two policy agendas which have had serious negative consequences for British ethnic relations. The book explores the misfit between central government policy construction and the reality of the local authority's implementation of the policy.

The Characters In The Waverley Novels

By: Mary Fair Anderson Husband

This book is intended as a work of reference for the student and lover of the Waverley Novels, and, in a minor degree, for the humanist who sees in Scott a noble nature worthy of closer acquaintance. Its aim is that of a Dictionary and not an Encyclopædia--an identification and description, rather than a condensed narrative, of the multitude of characters created by Sir Walter. No fewer than 2836 characters are comprised in the Dictionary, and these include 37 horses and 33 dogs. Every reader who is interested in Scott's works will love this most detailed and perfectly formatted dictionary.

Shadows of the Evening

By: Marion Husband

Return to the northern town of Thorp in this moving new addition to Marion Husband's bestselling The Boy I Love series. 'You, me, Eric, Paul Harris - even Margot - even Adele. All of us so messed up by the war we couldn't tell right from wrong.' 1964. The town of Thorp in the North of England has always kept its secrets. With so many husbands returned from the war changed men, there are some truths that can never be spoken. And yet, Bobby Harris is determined to find out the truth about his father, Paul. Horrified by Paul's scandalous posthumous biography, Bobby must discover if he really has been lied to all his life. But in uncovering his father's secrets, he soon learns that it is not only his own family who will be affected by his search for the truth. Praise for Marion Husband: 'As with all the best novelists, Husband's talent seems to draw its energy from the experience of writing from perspectives far removed from her own as she inhabits other genders, other sexualities, other eras' Patrick Gale 'Don't miss this series - if you love the power of words, words rich in layer and tone . . . you will love them. Can't recommend them enough.' Goodreads Reviewer

Lived Diversities

Space, Place and Identities in the Multi-Ethnic City

By: Charles Husband,Yunis Alam,Jorg Huettermann,Joanna Fomina

Lived diversities: Space, place and identities in the multi-ethnic city is a timely and important book, which focuses on multi-ethnic interaction in an inner city area. Addressing difficult issues that are often simplistically and negatively portrayed it challenges the stereotypical denigration of inner city life, and Muslim communities in particular. Using well-crafted historical, political and contextual explanations the book provides a nuanced account of contemporary multi-ethnic coexistence. This invaluable contribution to our understanding of the politics and practice of multicultural coexistence is a must-read for students and practitioners interested in ethnic diversity, urban policy and the politics of place and space.

Single Over Thirty

Witty Insights Into the Single Life (Now That You're Not a Kid Anymore)

By: John D. Husband

Single Over Thirty is an upbeat humor book that bypasses the kerfuffle of youthful singles, focusing instead on the challenges, opportunities and ironies experienced by the 48 million lesser known (but more numerous) single Americans over the ages of 30, 40 and 50. Included are stories on such pithy topics as singles weekends, great date ideas, kissing protocol, remarriage, cupid's predicament, dancing, libido, fantasy and 77 others. The book is based on the author's personal experience and on the experiences of hundreds of chatty, fun-loving unmarried folks who "told it like it was" during more than 250 in-depth group discussions. Despite its focus on singles, some of the book's most ardent readers are happily married couples who say the book gives them broader insights into the interactions of both singles and couples. Summing up: Age and marital status aside, this book is for anyone who has ever laughed or loved. Or wants to.
