Session Submission Summary

40252 - Mechanisms of Segregation

Mon, August 11, 8:00 to 9:30am, West Tower, Hyatt Regency Chicago, Floor: Lobby Level/Green, Crystal C

Description

Many researchers study segregation, but treat it as a noun, as if it were a disembodied condition of cities, suburbs, and other places. This panel invites papers that focus on the word’s root verb — "to segregate" — and examine the specific mechanisms that produce and reproduce segregation in the city. Submissions can be qualitative or quantitative, use historical or contemporary data, and focus on the micro-level or macro-level of analysis, as long as the mechanisms of segregation are the focus.
