Population patterns and processes with an ethnic group dimension

Strand of the British Society for Population Studies (BSPS) Conference 2014

Winchester, 8-10 September

Papers are invited which address (although not exclusively) the following issues with an ethnic group dimension:

· Internal and/or transnational migration

· Geographies of diversity (e.g., segregation, mixing, deprivation)

· Fertility patterns and trends

· Families, households and living arrangements

· Health and mortality patterns and trends

· Employment and labour market outcomes

· Methods for researching ethnic group population change

We particularly welcome papers which examine the connections between these population issues for ethnic groups.
