Summary:

Despite decades of policy interventions and awareness raising programmes, migration and mobility continue to give rise to tensions and questions of how to live together in a culturally diverse world. Presenting research from a range of settings, 'Managing Cultural Change' takes a new approach to these challenges, re-examining responses to migration and mobility as part of a process of managing wider cultural change.
