Description
Abstract from the distributor:
Marilena Liguori's dissertation focuses on multiculturalism and ethnocultural diversity in Toronto and seeks to explore the everyday lived experiences of recent immigrants. This work examines the role of urban imaginaries in entrepreneurial city marketing strategies in relation to the consolidation of the competitive city, which involve representations of 'diversity without difference' or the commodification of ethnocultural diversity.
Marilena Liguori is a PhD candidate in urban studies at the Centre for Urbanization, Culture and Society, The National Institute for Scientific Research, Canada.
