Banlieues, the Hyperghetto and Advanced Marginality: A Symposium on Loiec Wacquant's Urban Outcasts: Diverse poverty neighbourhoods Reflections on Urban Outcasts

摘要

It is difficult to exaggerate the importance for urban and social studies of Loi'c Wacquant's work (and indeed its relevance to political debate). As a contribution to bringing out and following up the importance of his most recent book, Urban Outcasts: A Comparative Sociology of Advanced Marginality, we have already published eight assessments (11:3, pp. 357-421), to which we now add Sako Musterd's paper, 'Diverse Poverty Neighbourhoods: Reflections on Urban Outcasts'. We intend to publish Wacquant's response in 12.2.
