本章描绘了超多样性的概念与人文地理学中关于流动性、空间复杂性、全球化和欢娱性的争论的关系。通过将超级多样性作为一个空间概念，本章试图回答超级多样性指的是什么问题，并反思它如何通过从全球、城市到地方的空间尺度表现出来。本文认为，这种空间方法对于研究超多样性作为一个概念如何响应涉及全球大都市和小地方的时空压缩的关系条件非常重要；活动的和不活动的；“多数”和“少数”。这种方法通过参与关于跨国城市主义、全球本地化和相关城市本体论的辩论，质疑超多样性在多大程度上是一种城市状况。它将超多样性作为一种本地体验进行探索，将人们的注意力吸引到作为跨区域、多尺度的场所的社区，以研究与差异共存的更具代表性的体验。本章探讨了超级多样性概念如何应对城市生活的多样性，并提供了一个解决社会分化的权力几何的视角。通过对实证研究的反思，该研究认为，将超级多样性与其他关键地理概念结合起来，可以促进对社会和文化复杂性、不平等以及共同生活的情感体验的细致理解。
This chapter maps the concept of superdiversity in relation to debates in human geography on mobilities, spatial complexity, globalization, and conviviality. Through framing superdiversity as a spatial concept, the chapter attempts to answer the question of what superdiversity refers to, reflecting on how it manifests through spatial scales from the global, to urban, to local. It argues that this spatial approach is important for investigating how superdiversity as a concept responds to a relational condition of time-space compression that involves global metropoles and small localities; the mobile and immobile; the “majority” and “minority.” This approach questions the extent to which superdiversity is an urban condition by engaging with debates on transnational urbanism, glocalization, and relational urban ontologies. Exploring superdiversity as a local experience, it draws attention to the neighborhood as a translocal, multiscalar site for researching the more-than-representational experience of living with difference. The chapter examines how the superdiversity concept can respond to the multiplicity of city life and provide a lens through which to address the power-geometries of social differentiation. Reflecting on empirical research, it argues that using superdiversity in tandem with other key geographical concepts can facilitate a nuanced understanding of the social and cultural complexities, the inequalities, and the affective experience of living together.
