The concept of superdiversity, introduced just over a decade ago, helps us understand the increasing social complexity of contemporary urban life. It represents a new way of 'seeing' cities as places of rapidly changing and intersecting forms of difference. In this presentation, Daniel Hiebert (University of British Colombia) will explore a new website that he has created along with three academic colleagues (Steven Vertovec, at the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Cultural Diversity; Alan Gamlen, at Monash University, and Paul Spoonley, at Massey University). The website assembles a wide array of data from three different countries to provide users with interactive tools to visualize urban superdiversity and, hopefully, to think about social change. It also enables users to explore the relationship between social difference and socio-economic outcomes. He will end by considering the challenging issue of presenting information to a wider public that includes many people who are highly skeptical of 'experts' and 'facts'.

Nationalism defines members of a nation in opposition to “others” (Druckman, 1994). By doing so, it draws the informal boundaries of the nation. Typically, scholars have identified two types of boundaries, those that are civic and those that are ethnic (Lecours, 2000). These different criteria to define who belongs to the nation have been associated with important implications for social and political dynamics. On the one hand, populations in countries with more ethnic conceptions of who belongs (in comparison to more civic ones) appear to express with more negative views about immigration (Kunovich, 2009). On the other hand, immigrants in countries with more civic conceptions of who belongs appear to express stronger sense of belonging (Simonens, 2016). Although international comparisons have examined how different countries draw those informal boundaries and their implications for views about immigration, little attention has been paid to how boundary drawing can vary within a nation, or more specifically how boundary drawing might vary between minority and majority nations in plurinational states. How much do majority and minority nationalisms differ in the way they draw their boundaries of who belongs? And what are the implications in shaping their relationships with immigration and ethnocultural diversity? This paper explores these questions by examining the cases of Quebecers and other Canadians. In order to explore these different questions, the paper relies on a survey of 5000 respondents conducted in the fall 2017 measuring how Quebecers and other Canadians define who belongs to the nation (respectively Quebec and Canada).
