Abstract

Sociale gelijkheid is goed voor iedereen. Het vormt een buffer tegen drugsgebruik,criminaliteit, gezondheidsproblemen (lichamelijk én psychisch)en wantrouwen (van mensen jegens elkaar en de gemeenschap). Strevennaar meer gelijkheid is dan ook geen filantropische onderneming, maareen zinvolle en noodzakelijke activiteit om het welzijn van anderen én vanonszelf te verbeteren.Sociale ongelijkheid is een complex vraagstuk. Wetenschappelijkinzicht, opgebouwd over een langere tijd en vanuit meerdere perspectieven,is onontbeerlijk voor structurele oplossingen. De Universiteit van Amsterdam(UvA) heeft een brede expertise op dit terrein. Ongelijkheid is een speerpuntin het onderzoek. Het Amsterdam Centre for Inequality Studies, verbondenaan de sociale faculteit van de UvA, combineert wetenschappelijke expertiseop dit gebied met maatschappelijk engagement. Onderzoekers van verschillendedisciplines werken er samen om greep te krijgen op het ontstaan énhet voorkomen van ongelijkheid.De hoofdstukken in deze bundel laten hiervan mooie voorbeelden zien.De auteurs presenteren niet alleen wat ze al weten, maar formuleren ooknieuwe kennisvragen. In de verschillende bijdragen staan grootstedelijkevraagstukken centraal: over wonen, mobiliteit, duurzaamheid, onderwijs,radicalisering en arbeidsparticipatie. De casussen komen vaak uit Amsterdam,maar zijn mondiaal relevant, ze spelen in alle wereldsteden. Hoestimuleren we een bloeiende creatieve economie en houden we tegelijkertijdde middenklasse en de laaggeschoolden in de stad? Hoe ontwikkelen we destad met oog voor ongelijkheid tussen bevolkingsgroepen in zowel (woon)ruimte als inkomen? Hoe doen we dat op een duurzame manier? Hoe makenwe slim en verantwoord gebruik van kunstmatige intelligentie? Hoe betrekkenwe alle burgers bij de samenleving?

Abstract

Imagining Global Amsterdam brings together new essays on the image of Amsterdam as articulated in film, literature, art, and urban discourse, considered within the context of globalization and its impact on urban culture. Subjects include: Amsterdam's place in global cultural memory; expressions of global consciousness in Amsterdam in the 'Golden Age'; articulations of Amsterdam as a tolerant, multicultural, and permissive 'global village'; and globalization's impact 'on the ground' through city branding, the cultural heritage industry, and cultural production in the city. Written by an interdisciplinary team of scholars, and united by a broad humanities approach, this collection forms a multifaceted inquiry into the dynamic relationship between Amsterdam, globalization, and the urban imaginary.

Abstract

In Urban Europe, urban researchers and practitioners based in Amsterdam tell the story of the European city, sharing their knowledge of and insights into urban dynamics in short, thought-provoking pieces. Their essays were collected on the occasion of the adoption of the Pact of Amsterdam with an Urban Agenda for the European Union during the Dutch Presidency of the Council in 2016.The fifty essays gathered in this volume present perspectives from diverse academic disciplines in the humanities and the social sciences. The authors " including the Mayor of Amsterdam, urban activists, civil servants and academic observers " cover a wide range of topical issues, inviting and encouraging us to rethink citizenship, connectivity, innovation, sustainability and representation as well as the role of cities in administrative and political networks. With the Urban Agenda for the European Union, EU Member States have acknowledged the potential of cities to address the societal challenges of the 21st century. This is part of a larger, global trend. These are all good reasons to learn more about urban dynamics and to understand the challenges that cities have faced in the past and that they currently face. Often but not necessarily taking Amsterdam as an example, the essays in this volume will help you grasp the complexity of urban Europe and identify the challenges your own city is confronting.

Abstract

This open access book provides an alternative theoretical framework of irregular migration that allows to overcome many of the contradictions and theoretical impasses displayed by the majority of approaches in current literature. The analytical framework allows moving from an interpretation biased by methodological nationalism, to a more general systemic interpretation. It explains irregular migration as a structural phenomenon or contemporary society, and why state policies are greatly ineffective in their attempt to control irregular migration. It also explains irregular migration as a diversified phenomenon that relates to the social characteristics of the context, and why states accept irregular migrants. By providing new comparative, empirical, qualitative material which allows to start filling an evident gap in the current research on irregular migration, this book is of interest to graduate students, scholars and policy makers.
