SOBRE ESTE EPISÓDIO
How is migration reshaping ethnic diversity worldwide — and what do demographic shifts mean for social categories? Dan Hiebert explains.
In this episode, Steven Vertovec and Georg Diez discuss migration and identity with geographer Dan Hiebert (University of British Columbia). They explore how aging populations, labor market needs, and media narratives shape migration dynamics — and how demographic diversity is transforming social categories across Western societies and the Global South.
Dan Hiebert is one of Canada's leading scholars on migration, multiculturalism, and urban diversity. His research examines how migration reshapes cities, labor markets, and social structures.
Futures of Difference is a research-based video podcast by the Max Planck Institute for Political and Social Science (formerly the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity) that explores how social categories are being challenged, contested, and transformed.
