Description
There are three major frameworks on segregation changes: spatial assimilation, place stratification, and resurgent ethnicity. Previous efforts to evaluate the significance of each framework, dominantly relying on cross-urban metrics, fall short in shedding light on underlying processes of segregation changes within a city, providing only circumstantial evidences for each framework. The author diagnoses that this shortcoming is a result of neglecting variability of segregation at the neighborhood level. Accordingly, this dissertation argues that more attention should be given to local segregation measures and proposes a set of local segregation measures corresponding to two spatial dimensions of segregation: the Location Quotient (LQ) for concentration-evenness and Local Moran’s I (LM-I) for clustering-exposure. Using these local measures, the dissertation examines segregation change at the neighborhood level in terms of residential patterning of race/ethnicity and neighborhood characteristics of racial/ethnic clustering/segregation in the Columbus Ohio MSA, 1990 and 2000. The overall findings strongly support resurgent ethnicity as the most relevant of the three frameworks.
