This volume combines theoretical analysis with a rich set of case studies to understand how national identity is negotiated across spatial scales. As nationalism and identity have continued as critical global flashpoints, this book provides the only up-to-date, comprehensive treatment of the territorial and scalar dimensions of national identity.

Exploring the worldwide boom in immigration, this book traces the profound changes in urban areas as various arrivals have transformed inner cities and suburbs alike into bastions of ethnic economic activity. It is useful for scholars and students in the fields of ethnic studies, urban studies, economic development, geography, and sociology.
