Biography

Vince Marotta  is a Senior Lecturer in Sociology at Deakin University and Coordinator of Publishing and Mentorship at the Alfred Deakin Research Institute for Citizenship and Globalisation.



Martina Boese is a Lecturer in Sociology at La Trobe University.

Their contributions were written against the backdrop of global upheaval which feeds the politics of exclusion and challenges the way cultures and communities coexist. As such, this book is an essential primer for all wishing to understand the present and the future of human sociability in our changing times.
