The concept of superdiversity was pioneered by anthropologist Steven Vertovec in his 2007 paper “Super-diversity and its implications”. In that paper Vertovec drew attention to the tremendous demographic changes that had occurred in London since the early to mid-1990’s. While up to that point “diversity” was commonly perceived in terms of relatively stable, organized and clearly identifiable ethnoreligious groups, Vertovec observed a considerable “diversification of diversity”.  When we speak of superdiversity, we refer to the complex multiplicity of cultures, languages, religions and other social and demographic factors that shape our diverse and fluid identities.

In this file we have compiled some interesting articles and papers on the topic of superdiversity. Enjoy!
