Book excerpt: Urban ethnic groups frequently are confronted by residential segregation, discrimination, xenophobia, and conflict. However, ethnic diversity has also enriched the urban scene with a variety of languages, religions, businesses, and cultural activities. In this volume, distinguished scholars present analyses of ethnic population change in twelve urban areas: Chicago, Los Angeles, Sydney/Melbourne, Paris, London, Amsterdam, the Ruhr conurbation, Vienna, Milan, Madrid, Johannesburg/Durban, and Singapore. EthniCity reveals fundamental commonalities in ethnic community dynamics as well as significant differences from place to place. It will be important for scholars and students of human geography, sociology, anthropology, and history.

Book Twilight Policing

    Book Details:
  • Author : Tessa G. Diphoorn
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2015-10-20
  • ISBN : 0520287339
  • Pages : 304 pages

Download or read book Twilight Policing written by Tessa G. Diphoorn and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2015-10-20 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: South Africa boasts the largest private security sector in the entire world, reflecting deep anxieties about violence, security, and governance. Twilight Policing is an ethnographic study of the daily policing practices of armed response officersÑa specific type of private security officerÑand their interactions with citizens and the state police in Durban, South Africa. This book shows how their policing practices simultaneously undermine and support the state, resulting in actions that are neither public nor private, but something in between, something Òtwilight.Ó Their performances of security are also punitive, disciplinary, and exclusionary, and they work to reinforce post-apartheid racial and economic inequalities. Ultimately, Twilight Policing helps to illuminate how citizens survive volatile conditions and to whom they assign the authority to guide them in the process.

Book Violence   Family Life in Contemporary South Africa

Download or read book Violence Family Life in Contemporary South Africa written by Lorraino Glanz and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Violence has permeated South Africa's social and cultural life for many years. It has insinuated itself even into the confines of domestic relations and close-kin associations. Yet for decades the discriminatory reporting of violence has tended to hide its true extent, particularly as experienced by the disadvantaged sectors of the country's population. Violence and family life in contemporary South Africa: research and policy issues discusses the contemporary manifestations of violence in South African society. It presents a collection of empirically based papers on the effect of violence on family life. This is followed by a group of papers specifically solicited to examine the empirical contributions in order to make recommendations on policy and intervention strategies by relevant agencies. This book is a unique attempt to bring together in a single volume the many faces and effects of violence in South Africa, making an invaluable source of information for students and academics. The translation of empirical findings into recommendations for policy and intervention also makes it an essential reference volume for policy makers, state planners and law enforcement and oother practitioners.
