SUS.DIV in the pocket:

"Diversity management in practice: a cross-cultural & multi-disciplinary annotated bibliography addressing policy and well-being", edited by Susanne Kuechler and Sandra Wallman, Sussex Academic Press, 2009

This book aims to support cross-cultural understanding of issues surrounding diversity and its management in society. The articles and books annotated comprise both classical works and contemporary perspectives, allowing better communication across linguistic barriers on issues that affect chiefly the management of organisations and cities in Europe.  The volume is a vital tool for anybody conducting primary research in the implementation of diversity regulation, and it is an inspiration for practitioners in the field of diversity management and policy implementation. It features Subject, Discipline, Geographic, and Diversity indexes, which will enable searches to be conducted across cultural perspectives. more

"Sustainable cities: diversity, economic growth and social cohesion", edited by Maddy Janssens, Dino Pinelli, Dafne C. Reymen and Sandra Wallman, Edward Elgar, FEEM Series on "Economics, the Environment and Sustainable Development", 2009

This book focuses on cities, their relationship with each other and the disparities between them. Analysing cities as the places where diversity is especially apparent, where cultural richness is experienced and where conflicts often erupt, it illustrates how cultures and cultural diversity interact with economic growth and development. The contributors provide valuable insight into how diverse cities should best be governed and made sustainable, and explore the concept of diversity in relation to sustainability. This book will prove a fascinating read for academics and policy-makers with a specific interest in diversity policy and regional and urban studies, as well as economics and the social sciences in general. more
