I'm currently working on how displacement may occur without movement/migration, and one possible case I’m considering is that long-established residents may feel a loss of home due to large-scale immigration to their neighbourhoods, whether for prejudiced reasons or not...(1/3)

Anyone on here who works on migration know of any literature that addresses this, either directly or indirectly? I’m wondering if literature on the impacts of immigration on trust/social cohesion (which I could do with brushing up on) may be relevant (2/3)

Arlie Russell Hochschild's 'Strangers in Their Own Land' about the American right is the closest I've found so far. Thanks in advance for any suggestions (3/3)

One day until UCU members at @UniversityLeeds start *indefinite strike action* caused by senior management's mishandling of the dispute over pay, casualisation, workloads and equal pay. The vice chancellor could solve this at any time but is inexplicably choosing not to. 1️⃣⏰🚨🪧
