在这篇文章中，我开始解释跨民族之间的差异风格的少数民族纳入传统的政治制度的英国和法国城市。为此，我从少数群体参与的制度主义方法中汲取灵感并加以完善。我集中在两个案例的比较，伯明翰（英国）和里尔（法国）。我构建了一个简约的解释框架，集中在三个制度因素：中央与地方的关系，在每个国家和地方政党政治和地方政府在每个城市的风格。我认为，这些元素联合收割机在每个国家以不同的方式产生不同的地方政治环境的少数民族的政治，从而塑造参与模式和条件的成功，或没有，在城市的选举过程。由于当地的特殊性，我的两个案例并不完全代表其他城市，但它们说明了大多数城市的政治进程。在伯明翰，少数民族成功地参与了工党政治，而在里尔，他们在强大的社会党机器手中受到持续的政治排斥。版权联合编辑和布莱克韦尔出版社有限公司2002年。
In this article, I set out to explain cross-national variations between styles of ethnic minority incorporation in the conventional political systems of British and French cities. To this aim, I draw inspiration from, and refine, institutionalist approaches to minority participation. I focus on a comparison of two cases, Birmingham (England) and Lille (France). I construct a parsimonious explanatory framework focused on three institutional factors: central-local relations in each country and local party politics and styles of local government in each city. I argue that these elements combine in different ways in each country to produce different local political environments for the politics of ethnic minorities, thereby shaping patterns of participation and conditioning their success, or absence thereof, in the electoral process of cities. Because of local specificities, my two cases are not entirely representative of other cities, but they provide an illustration of the political processes at work in most cities. In Birmingham, minorities participate successfully in Labour party politics, while in Lille, they are submitted to persistent political exclusion at the hands of a powerful Socialist party machine.
