Centrum voor Migratie en Interculturele Studies Radicalisation
a marginal phenomenon or a mirror to society?
Radicalisation is a topical and a much-discussed concept in current European societies. Its use in policy and societal discourses, such as media coverage and educational contexts, is very sensitive. This thought-provoking collection of essays critically addresses the topic of radicalisation from different angles, combining discipline-specific insights from the fields of sociology, philosophy, history, religious studies, and media studies, with new empirical data. The authors step away from readily...

Centrum voor Migratie en Interculturele Studies Gender and migration

The impact of gender on migration processes Considering the dynamic and reciprocal relationship between gender relations and migration, the contributions in this book approach migration dynamics from a gender-sensitive perspective. Bringing together insights from various fields of study, it is demonstrated how processes of social change occur differently in distinct life domains, over time, and across countries and/or regions, influencing the relationship between gender and migration. Detailed analysis...

Centrum voor Migratie en Interculturele Studies Migration and integration in Flanders
multidisciplinary perspectives
Thought-provoking insights on the nexus of migration and integration beyond the national context Across the world, and due to ongoing globalisation, migration is increasingly becoming a part of daily life. But more than ever, migration can no longer be viewed as a simple linear trajectory from A to B. The emergence of transnational communities and intense interactions between regions of origin and of destination have led to new forms of social-cultural praxis and (sub)cultures which exert an important...

R. Elsen | Ignace Pollet | Patrick Develtere Compass for intercultural partnerships
a thought provoking book to deploy the integration of cultures as a source of welfare and tolerance in a glocalising world
As globalisation makes the visual distinction between North and South, East and West disappear, one definitely needs a compass. It still points to magnetic North. For the moment. This book focuses on the added value created by interculturality which is the interaction, exchange and integration between people of different cultures. The reflexions are aimed at profit and non-profit organisations who have the ambition to be enriched and strengthened by their cultural diversity. This publication states...

Michael Douma How Dutch Americans stayed Dutch
an historical perspective on ethnic identities
Summary: The Dutch-American ethnic group demonstrates the persistence of Dutchness, which, however, has come to mean many different things in an American context. This study demonstrates that Dutch identities, focusing on the nineteenth and twentieth-century immigrants, have survived precisely because of this flexibility: the evolution of tradition, not its rigid preservation, is the unifying principle of social cohesion. As Douma contends, to understand ethnic groups we need to see them as historically...
