- 摘要
- Melbourne’s population is culturally superdiverse yet there is little focus on inclusiveness in diverse communities. This article will present a case study of Footscray, Melbourne, Australia, examining the following questions: How do government, service providers and civic organisations in Footscray work to build a more cohesive community? How does a local Facebook group work to create a more culturally cohesive community? The findings are based on fieldwork in a multicultural gentrifying inner suburb of Melbourne, and show that inclusion has a clear spatial component, while place-based social media can reinforce and enhance community participation of culturally diverse groups.摘要墨尔本的人口在文化上非常多元,但却很少关注多元社区的包容性. 本文将介绍澳大利亚墨尔本脚步声的案例研究,探讨以下问题:政府、服务提供商和民间组织如何在这方面开展工作,以建立一个更具凝聚力的社区?一个当地的脸谱网群组如何创建一个更具文化凝聚力的社区?研究结果基于对墨尔本一个多文化贵族化的近郊的实地调查,表明包容具有明显的空间成分,而基于地方的社交媒体可以加强和增强文化多样性群体的社区参与.KEYWORDS: Communitymulticulturalismgovernancemigrationpolicy evaluationFacebookDisclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by the Social and Global Research Centre, RMIT University, Melbourne.
