There has been growing interest across the western world regarding the impact of migration and the implications for social cohesion in our societies and cities. A key aspect of the debate is the impact of migration on segregation -- the extent to which people from different ethnicities tend to concentrate in particular neighbourhoods. This PhD offers a superb opportunity to work with a world-leading team of researchers from the UK and the Netherlands to produce cutting-edge research on the causes and impacts of "social frontiers", an exciting new area of segregation research. Social Frontiers arise when there are sharp spatial divisions in the residential make-up of adjacent communities (e.g. Catholics and Protestants in Belfast) as opposed to more gradual spatial blending of groups. There is growing evidence that this type of segregation could have important implications, both positive and negative, for crime, mental health and educational outcomes. This studentship will give you a unique opportunity to investigate the impacts and formation of social frontiers using one of the world's very best micro-level social science datasets.

整个西方世界对移民的影响及其对社会和城市社会凝聚力的影响越来越感兴趣。这场辩论的一个关键方面是移民对种族隔离的影响——来自不同种族的人倾向于集中在特定社区的程度。这个博士学位提供了一个极好的机会，与来自英国和荷兰的世界领先的研究团队合作，对“社会前沿”的原因和影响进行前沿研究，这是一个令人兴奋的隔离研究新领域。当相邻社区（例如贝尔法斯特的天主教徒和新教徒）的居住构成存在明显的空间划分时，社会边界就会出现，而不是群体更渐进的空间融合。越来越多的证据表明，这种类型的隔离可能对犯罪、心理健康和教育成果产生重要的积极和消极影响。这个学生将给你一个独特的机会，使用世界上最好的微观社会科学数据集之一来研究社会前沿的影响和形成。
