Publications

Research outputs, baseline studies, and newsletter archive from the ICEC project.

Baseline Studies

The ICEC Baseline Studies were made available online as of October 2014. They set out the comparative framework for analysing neighbourhood-related policies promoting interethnic coexistence in Amsterdam, Stockholm, and Vienna.

  • City profiles and neighbourhood case-study descriptions
  • Review of policy measures and local initiatives
  • Comparative analytical framework for the three cities

The publications archive gathers the research outputs, baseline studies, and newsletter editions produced throughout the lifespan of the project on interethnic coexistence in European cities. These documents trace the development of a comparative framework designed to examine how neighbourhood-related policies shape everyday life in diverse urban districts. By bringing together city profiles, case-study descriptions, and policy reviews, the collection offers a structured way to follow how local approaches are analysed side by side. Readers can trace the methodological choices that anchor the work, observe how the three cities are positioned within a shared analytical lens, and revisit the recurring questions that guide the project's applied and comparative orientation. The archive therefore functions as both a reference point and a record of the project's evolving inquiry into urban coexistence.
