10. Medlemmar och medborgare : Föreningsdeltagande och politiskt engagemang i det etnifierade samhället

Or does it rather aggravate the political marginalisation of people with foreign backgrounds? This thesis is based on two large-scale surveys that have been designed explicitly to deal with questions of this sort. It is shown that there are substantial differences in associational affiliation between people with and without foreign backgrounds. LÄS MER
