Cities, Migration and Global Interdependence
The key subject of the research programme Cities, Migration and Global Interdependence 1500 - Now (CMGI) is Inequality (at local, national and global levels).
We study this from an intersectional perspective: gender, class, ethnicity or race, religion, sexuality, age, ability/disability, citizenship and legal status. We study these categories of power and identity in connection to each other and not separately. We think that how societies deal with one form of diversity is related to how societies deals with other forms of diversity.
