Hannah Jones celebrates the launch of her new book - 'Negotiating cohesion, inequality and change: Uncomfortable positions in local government'
How are multiculturalism, inequality and belonging understood in the day-to-day thinking and practices of local government? Examining original empirical data, this book explores how local government officers and politicians negotiate ‘difficult subjects’ linked with community cohesion policy: diversity, inequality, discrimination, extremism, migration, religion, class, power and change. The book argues that such work necessitates ‘uncomfortable positions’ when managing ethical, professional and political commitments.
