About the Institute
The Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity is one of the foremost centers for the multi-disciplinary study of diversity, in its multiple forms, in today’s globalizing world.
INSTITUTIONS AND ORGANISATIONS
The focus here is on the state at different levels, social and legal categorizations and meso-level organisations. Do organisations and political institutions reflect diversity? Are they open or closed to change?
SOCIAL INTERACTIONS AND ATTITUDES
How do different groups perceive the diversification of their cities, neighbourhoods, societies? How inclusive or exclusive are encounters and social interactions and what determines that?
INDIVIDUAL EXPERIENCES
Dynamics surrounding migration and diversity take many forms. What do the experiences of migration and diversification mean to individuals? How is that determined by age, gender, racism? What identifications develop in different contexts and interactions?
INSIGHTS@mpimmg
In INSIGHTS@mpimmg, our researchers give brief 3 minute insights into their work: what they research, how they do it and why it is significant.
