Cosmopolitan Civil Societies: An Interdisciplinary Journal

Vol 12 No 1 (2020): How come inequality is part of the new urban mix?

This picture brings together some basic elements of our topic. On migration: We do not understand whether the person we see is a migrant or a traveller or simply someone pulling a trolley. We only see that he is walking alone, is not white and is confidently wearing traditional African clothes. On inequalities: In the background we see a cruise ship, which is a form of mobility that is invasive and privileged - the opposite of the vessels taken by thousands of migrants who try to cross the Mediterranean in search of a better life and risk losing their lives during the journey.

This special issue presents explores the question of inequality from several different conceptual perspectives, using case study material from cities from a range of countries.
