在本文中，我探讨了多元文化主义的复杂性，如地方共享，跨文化互动，或居住的多元文化主义。我调查，特别是，在一个文化多样的郊区，由一个以上的民族共享的幸福感和归属感的斗争和潜力。基于在悉尼郊区阿什菲尔德的民族志实地考察，我提出了一系列的民族志小插曲，代表我所谓的“有希望的跨文化学者”。我理论这些方面的西梅尔的概念的感激之情，和哈格的概念“希望在生活的一面”作为一种手段，反映在社会上的可能性，在文化多样性的地方新形式的整合。
In this paper I explore the complex nature of multiculturalism as place-sharing, of cross-cultural interaction, or multiculturalism of inhabitance. I investigate, in particular, the struggles over and potentials for a sense of hopefulness and belonging in a culturally diverse suburb shared by more than one ethnic group. Based on ethnographic fieldwork in the Sydney suburb of Ashfield, I present a series of ethnographic vignettes that represent what I term ‘hopeful intercultural encounters’. I theorise these in terms of Simmel's notion of gratitude, and Hage's notion of ‘hope on the side of life’ as a means of reflecting on the social possibilities for new forms of integration in culturally diverse localities.
