    Ted Cantle updates his concept of community cohesion, which critiques multicultural policies and offers a compelling alternative to community relations, which has been widely adopted in the UK. Revised in light of recent research, and now incorporating discussion on segregation and faith concerns.

    In this timely study, the author examines the historical approach to race and diversity and suggests that equality strategies have been a vital, but limited, means of addressing discrimination and community tensions. Community Cohesion, it argues, offers a new framework to break down the barriers between different communities and understand the more fundamental causes of racism and the 'fear of difference'. Concepts of multiculturalism, identity and citizenship are also reviewed and the developing practice of community cohesion is described.
