Book excerpt: Lorsque la cohésion sociale est analysée en tant que résultat, les facteurs qui l'influencent peuvent être regroupés sous les rubriques de la restructuration économique, de la diversité et des caractéristiques de certaines communautés. [...] Ceux qui définissent la cohésion sociale en termes de solidarité sociale et de modes de répartition se tournent vers des indicateurs d'inclusion-exclusion, ainsi que vers des mesures individuelles de répartition du revenu, de pauvreté et d'amplitude des inégalités. [...] Ceux qui définissent la cohésion sociale en terme de capital et de liens sociaux s'emploient à mesurer les taux de participation, l'appartenance et la confiance et tentent aussi de caractériser la forme des réseaux. [...] Les milieux d'orientation des politiques ressentent de plus en plus le besoin d'intégrer les concepts qui peuvent avoir une application pour un large éventail de défis - par exemple, en partant de la sécurité du revenu, pour passer à la sécurité dans les quartiers et à la sécurité nationale. [...] L'un des domaines de divergence dans ces débats a trait à la question de savoir qui ou quelles institutions - marchés, familles ou politiques publiques - auront la responsabilité d'assurer le bien-être des individus ainsi que de la communauté ? En d'autres termes, parce qu'elle aborde les questions de l'agencement des responsabilités, la cohésion sociale peut être utilisée comme un concept crucial.

Book excerpt: Overall, the major change in the literature that treats social cohesion as a dependent variable has been the increased attention to the capacity of well-designed strategic action to foster social cohesion. [...] The other way to treat social cohesion is to emphasize "what it does." The focus is no longer on the fragility of social cohesion but on its contribution to or implications for growth, well-being, 4 and participation. [...] Those who define social cohesion in terms of social solidarity and patterns of distribution turn to measures of inclusion-exclusion, as well as to individual measures of income distribution, poverty, and a range of inequalities. [...] Following from this, the second thing to recognize is that the utility of the concept depends on its contribution to framing conversations, to helping to make sense of complex relationships, and to setting goals. [...] The final section of the paper provides a number of examples of major national and international bodies that have turned to social cohesion as a concept for framing their responses to the challenges of the future.

This book was released on 2009-04-05 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does multiculturalism ‘work’? Does multiculturalism policy create social cohesion, or undermine it? Multiculturalism was introduced in Canada in the 1970s and widely adopted internationally, but more recently has been hotly debated, amid new concerns about social, cultural, and political impacts of immigration. Advocates praise multiculturalism for its emphasis on special recognition for cultural minorities as facilitating their social integration, while opponents charge that multiculturalism threatens social cohesion by encouraging social isolation. Multiculturalism is thus rooted in a theory of human behaviour, and this book examines the empirical validity of some of its basic propositions, focusing on Canada as the country for which the most enthusiastic claims for multiculturalism have been made. The analysis draws on the massive national Ethnic Diversity Survey of over 41,000 Canadians in 2002, the most extensive survey yet conducted on this question. The analysis provides a new and more nuanced understanding of the complex relation between multiculturalism and social cohesion, challenging uncritically optimistic or pessimistic views. Ethnic community ties facilitate some aspects of social integration, while discouraging others. For racial minorities, relations within and outside minority communities are greatly complicated by more frequent experiences of discrimination and inequality, slowing processes of social integration. Implications for multicultural policies emphasize that race relations present important challenges across Quebec and the rest of Canada, including for the new religious minorities, and that ethnic community development requires more explicit support for social integration.
