"This interdisciplinary volume offers methodologically innovative approaches to Austria's coping with issues of migration past and present. These essays show Austria's long history as a migration country. Austrians themselves have been on the move for the past 150 years to find new homes and build better lives. After World War II the economy improved and prosperity set in, so Austrians tended to stay at home. Austria's growing prosperity made the country attractive to potential immigrants. After the war, tens of thousands of "ethnic Germans" expelled from Eastern Europe settled in Austria. Starting in the 1950s "victims of the Cold War" (Hungarians, Czechs and Slovaks) began looking for political asylum in Austria. Since the 1960s Austria has been recruiting a growing number of "guest workers" from Turkey and Yugoslavia to make up for the labor missing in the industrial and service economies. Recently, refugees from the arc of crisis from Afghanistan to Syria to Somalia have braved perilous journeys to build new lives in a more peaceful and prosperous Europe."(Umschlagtext).

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This investigation seeks to understand how urban imaginaries of fear have led to segregation and fragmentation in the Mexican city of Guadalajara. The distinct socio-economic spaces of Santa Cecilia and Puerta de Hierro are explored to understand the social constructions of fear and perceived danger in urban areas.This study employs a multidisciplinary approach through ethnographic fieldwork, historical reconstruction, archival research, and media content analysis to examine the socio-spatial dynamics that have propagated the urban imaginaries of fear that exist in Guadalajara. It reveals how the historically marginalized Santa Cecilia district has been portrayed as a wild no-go zone full of danger. In turn, Puerta de Hierro's gated community reflects its affluent residents' fears and the trending desire for urban separation, isolation, and fortification.The research concludes that urban imaginaries of fear have played a significant role in influencing public policy, city planning, urban division, social cohesion, and stereotypes that affect the quality of life for its residents. By combining historical analysis with contemporary media studies and first-hand accounts from residents from both sides of the divide, this investigation provides valuable insights for understanding the intentional processes of urban segregation and how they perpetuate and exacerbate social inequalities.
