It examines how different social and identity markers (ethnicity, religion, race, gender, class, sexuality, handicap or language) shape cities and how diversity is in turn shaped by public policies.

Students with credit for POL 458 under the title "Canadian DiverCities", URB 463 or URB 695 under the title "Diversity in Cities" may not take this course for further credit.
