Title
Creating Diversity Capital: Transnational Migrants in Montreal, Washington, and Kyiv
Abstract
The author discusses the impact of immigrants on Montreal, Washington DC, and Kyiv, Ukraine. He argues that since the 1970s, this immigration has created "mélange cities" that experience both positive changes and tensions as a result of cultural, ethnic and linguistic diversification. Includes chapters titled: "Living in the Middle"; "Working and Studying in the Middle"; and "From Saint Jean-Baptiste to Saint Patrick: Montreal's Twisting Path to Intercultural Diversity."
