===== Date and country of first publication<ref>Date and country of first publication as informed by the Scopus database (December 2023).</ref>===== 2013<br> United States ===== Definition ===== Enforced residential segregation refers to policies or practices that deliberately separate different racial or ethnic groups into distinct residential areas, often with the intention of maintaining racial or social inequality. Historically, enforced residential segregation has been prevalent in many countries around the world, including the United States during the era of racial segregation known as Jim Crow laws. These laws enforced separate housing accommodations for different racial groups, leading to the creation of racially divided neighborhoods and communities. Enforced residential segregation can have several negative consequences. It perpetuates racial and social disparities by limiting access to quality housing, education, and jobs for marginalized groups. It can also contribute to the perpetuation of stereotypes and prejudices as people from different racial or ethnic backgrounds have limited interactions and opportunities to understand or appreciate each other's cultures. Efforts to combat enforced residential segregation have been ongoing for decades. In the United States, for example, the Fair Housing Act of 1968 was enacted to prohibit housing discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, and familial status. However, despite legal measures, residential segregation remains a persistent issue in many countries. Addressing and dismantling enforced residential segregation requires awareness, policy changes, and active efforts to foster inclusive communities that promote integration and equality. ==See also== ==Related segregation forms== Enforced residential segregation is frequently discussed in the literature with the following segregation forms: [[residential segregation]] [[File:enforced_residential_segregation.png|780x780px]] This visualization is based on the study [[Segregation_Wiki:About| The Multidisciplinary Landscape of Segregation Research]].
