Istanbul - Living With Difference in a Global City

Informationen zum Autor Fisher-Onar, Nora Klappentext Explores how to live with difference through the prism of an age-old, cutting-edge city whose people have long confronted the challenge of sharing space with the Other. Rather than exploring Istanbul as one place at one time, the contributors to this volume focus on the city's experience of migration and globalization over the last two centuries. Zusammenfassung The contributors to Istanbul focus on the city’s connection to massive migration and globalization over the last two centuries, exploring the rise, collapse, and rebirth of cosmopolitan thinking and behaviors, and trying to sort out what functions as cosmopolitanism and what fails to live up to that term.
