<blockquote>[[File:1 SF CO network 100x70cm.png|center|frameless|800x800px]]The topological landscape of segregation research: The emergent pattern of segregation forms (SFs) and their connections based on co-occurrences in documents in the literature, analysed in 22 Louvain clusters with 577 SFs (Netto et al, 2024). Node sizes indicate degree centrality. Navigate the [https://tinyurl.com/2brf2kts interactive CO network] to zoom in and see its complexity.</blockquote><big>Segregation is a well-known phenomenon that probably impacts billions living in complex societies worldwide. It is a crucial subject across dozens of scientific fields, from Sociology and Urban Studies to Anthropology and Gender Studies. We have found works on segregation in 169 scientific fields.</big> | |||
<big>So what makes segregation such a far-reaching phenomenon, capable of triggering attention in many different areas of knowledge or, more importantly, sweeping into many aspects of social reality? First of all, what is segregation? Definitions may vary. Segregation takes on different forms. It is a multidimensional phenomenon that manifests over people and places across social groups, situations and contexts and through different means and materialities. However, how does segregation manifest across reality? How many forms of segregation exist? Have the sciences engaged with the problem brought all its facets to light?</big> | <big>So what makes segregation such a far-reaching phenomenon, capable of triggering attention in many different areas of knowledge or, more importantly, sweeping into many aspects of social reality?
