“…Nonetheless, the "high ethnic concentration" counties in Germany are relatively few, which is in line with previous findings (e.g., Schönwälder and Söhn, 2009;Buch et al, 2021). Buch et al, (2021) also found a negative relationship between ethnic diversity and segregation in German cities. For each of the four ethnic groups under study, Figure 1 displays the distribution of counties according to the counties' population shares of the respective ethnic group.…”

“…Furthermore, and in contrast to other European countries (or the U.S.), the authors show that the immigrant population in Germany is not predominantly concentrated in a few urban centers, but rather distributed over a large number of cities, many of them small-and medium-sized. These results are confirmed by more recent evidence based on geocoded data (Buch et al, 2021). Glitz (2014) studies the overall levels of ethnic workplace and residential segregation among the active labor force population in Germany using administrative data at the municipality level.…”

“…We find that Turks are prevalently residing in the Ruhr area, Cologne, and Berlin, whereas the other ethnic groups tend to reside in the Southern German counties, possibly reflecting regional labor demand by recruiting firms during the guestworker program. While Buch et al, (2021), in general, find a negative relationship between ethnic diversity and segregation in German cities, they detect in the old industrialized Ruhr area a low level of ethnic diversity among foreign workers with comparatively high segregation.…”

The role of ethnic clustering in ethnic identity formation has remained unexplored, mainly due to missing detailed data. This study closes the knowledge gap for Germany by employing a unique combination of datasets, the survey data from the German Socio-Economic Panel and disaggregated information at low geographical levels from the last two but still unexploited full German censuses, 1970 and 1987. Utilizing the exogenous placement of immigrants during the recruitment era in the 1960s and 1970s we find that local co-ethnic concentration affects immigrants’ ethnic identity. While residential ethnic clustering strengthens immigrants’ retention of an affiliation with their origin (minority identity), it weakens identification with the host society (majority identity). The effects are nonlinear and become significant only at relatively high levels of co-ethnic concentration for the minority identity and at very low levels of local concentration for the majority identity. The findings are robust to an instrumental variable approach. JEL Codes: J15; R23; Z10

“…Denn die soziale Segregation steigt, während die ethnische Segregation abnimmt (Helbig/Jähnen 2018;Fiedrichs/Triemer 2009) bzw. relativ gering ist (Buch et al 2021, Rüttenauer 2022. Die so diagnostizierte soziale Spaltung der Städte führt zur Ausbildung relativ sozial aber nicht kulturell homogener Wohn-und Alltagswelten.…”

Während immer neue Spaltungslinien wie soziale Ungleichheit, politische Polarisierung oder der Umgang mit Krisen zu gesellschaftlicher Fragmentierung führen, wird übersehen, dass Nachbarschaft im Alltag ein Potenzial für Zusammenhalt birgt. Das Buch geht daher der Frage nach, was Nachbarschaft eigentlich ist, und präsentiert zahlreiche empirische Befunde. Sebastian Kurtenbach zeigt, wie Nachbarschaft heute verstanden werden kann, welche Rolle Organisationen oder die Digitalisierung für das nachbarschaftliche Zusammenleben spielen, und welche Unterschiede zwischen Nachbarschaft in der Stadt und auf dem Land bestehen. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/deed.de
