Items related to Community Cohesion: A New Framework for Race and Diversity
In this timely study, the author examines the historical approach to race and diversity and suggests that equality strategies have been a vital, but limited, means of addressing discrimination and community tensions. Community Cohesion, it argues, offers a new framework to break down the barriers between different communities and understand the more fundamental causes of racism and the 'fear of difference'. Concepts of multiculturalism, identity and citizenship are also reviewed and the developing practice of community cohesion is described.

About the Author:
TED CANTLE was appointed in 2001 by the UK Home Secretary to Chair the Community Cohesion Review Team. The subsequent 'Cantle Report' hit the headlines when it drew attention to the 'parallel lives' of different communities. It went on to make around 70 recommendations and the concept of 'community cohesion' was subsequently adopted by the UK government. Cantle is regarded as the founding father of 'community cohesion' and now leads the Institute of Community Cohesion, UK.
Review:
Reviews of the first edition:
'Cantle's concept of community cohesion transcends the polarised debate between integration and multi-culturalism...[his] analysis is both intellectually rigorous and admirably pragmatic in its desire to shape effective practice in a highly contentious policy domain.'
- Professor Vivien Lowndes, Leicester de Montfort University
'Ted Cantle is the pre-eminent authority on community cohesion in the UK. This book is essential reading for anyone who wants to know the practicalities of managing diversity in the 21st century. The challenge of integrating new communities is laid bare, along with the solutions. Anyone wanting to know how to build shared values and bring communities together should start here.'
- Oona King, Former MP.
'Required reading - sane and brave'.
- Trevor Phillips, Chair, Equality and Human Rights Commission
