In this episode, host Kim König and Research Fellow Ole Münch are joined by Christiane Reinecke, Professor of Modern European History at the Europa-Universität Flensburg, to discuss her research on notions of urban problems in late 20th-century European cities. Drawing on Christiane’s GHIL lecture, they discuss the shift in urban policy discourse from class-based concerns to issues of migration, race and ethnicity, and explore the role of social science in shaping these developments. Our conversation covers comparative European approaches to diversity and integration, from Germany and France to Britain and the Netherlands.
