(author)Based on data from the 1980s, Sassen’s influential book ‘The Global City’ interrogated how changes in the occupational structure affect socio-economic residential segregation in global cities. Here, using data for New York City, London and Tokyo, we reframe and answer this question for recent decades. Our analysis shows an increase in the share...journal article 2020

Nieuwenhuis, J.G. (author), Tammaru, T. (author), van Ham, M. (author), Hedman, L.K. (author), Manley, D.J. (author)The neighbourhood in which people live reflects their social class and preferences, so studying socio-spatial mobility between neighbourhood types gives insight into the openness of spatial class structures of societies and into the ability of people to leave disadvantaged neighbourhoods. In this paper we study the extent to which people move...journal article 2020

The aim of this paper is to better understand the explanatory factors behind the timing of entrepreneurial changes that take place during the...journal article 2019

(author)This chapter develops a multi-level conceptual model of segregation, by using three conceptual levels – individuals and households, generations, and urban regions. Different socio-economic groups sort into different types of neighbourhoods and other domains, leading to patterns of segregation at the urban regional level. At the same time...book chapter 2018

(author)Mid-twentieth-century large housing estates, which can be found all over Europe, were once seen as modernist urban and social utopias that would solve a variety of urban problems. Since their construction, many large housing estates have become poverty concentrating neighbourhoods, often with large shares of immigrants. In Northern and Western...book chapter 2018

What is the size, scale and geography of housing estates, their architectural and built environment...book 2018

Mägi, K. (author), van Ham, M. (author), Leetmaa, Kadri (author), Tammaru, T. (author)Although many studies claim that the residential context is an important factor in shaping the ethnic identity of minorities, there are few studies which actually measure this relationship. This study contributes to filling this gap by investigating the relationship between the ethnic composition of neighbourhoods and changes in the self...journal article 2018

Hedman, L.K. (author), van Ham, M. (author), Tammaru, T. (author)The literature on intergenerational contextual mobility has shown that neighbourhood status is partly "inherited" from parents to children where children who spend their childhood in deprived neighbourhoods are more likely to live in such neighbourhoods also as adults. It has been suggested that such transmission of neighbourhood status also is...working paper 2017

van Ham, M. (author), Tammaru, T. (author), de Vuijst, E. (author), Zwiers, M.D. (author)Income inequality is increasing in European cities and this rising inequality has a spatial footprint in cities and neighbourhoods.

Low income people, often with an ethnic minority background, can get cut off from important social...working paper 2016

Mägi, K. (author), Leetmaa, K (author), Tammaru, T. (author), van Ham, M.
