- The interdisciplinary book arose from a collaborative ESRC-funded project between sociologists and geographers to examine how multiculture was shaped by and lived through places. The PI, Neal, took the lead in authoring but all team members contributed to all chapters. Mohan led on Chapter 8 regarding policy imaginaries and argued that much policy-making in these everyday places is produced between state and non-state actors, often through small acts. This was distinct from much work on multicultural policy which tends to look at integration in cities, or more national policy responses around social cohesion and Prevent agendas. This sensibility arose from Mohan’s earlier work on African diasporas as informal agents of transnational development.
