Changes to an area over time can cause conflict for a number of reasons. Southall is an area of London that has had tensions between ethnic groups and long term issues in the area.

20. Southall vs Luton Research
In pairs you are going to find out about Southall and Luton and how it has changed over time.
On the sugar paper provided you are going to create a resource. At the end of the lesson you will then need to present it back to your partner.
1 – What was your area like in the 1960, 70, 80 and 90’s? How does this compare to now?
2 – What is being done to redevelop your area and how has this changed the area?
3 – What cultural conflicts exist in your area?
4 – Do you think your area has been successfully redeveloped and managed?

21. Factors affecting social exclusion
Internal Factors
Providing mutual support via families, welfare and community organisations, religious centres, ethnic shops etc.
Encouraging friendship and marriages within ethnic groups, or reducing contacts with the majority population that may undermine the culture of the ethnic minority
Providing protection against racist abuse and attacks from members of the majority population
Increasing political influence and power in the local area
Allowing more opportunities to use minority language
Providing a strong power base for militant groups set up to fight on behalf of the ethnic minority
External Factors
Migration of the majority population out of an area into which a minority population is moving
Discrimination in the job market; ethnic minorities are more likely to be unemployed and on low incomes, forcing them into areas of cheap housing
Discrimination by house sellers, estate agents, financial institutions, private landlords and state housing agencies
Social hostility/ unfriendliness from majority population
Racially motivated violence against ethnic minorities, or fear of such violence.
There are two different categories of factors:
Internal Factors
Encouraging ethnic minorities to opt for segregation
External Factors
Action taken by the majority population to encourage ethnic segregation
In order to make ethnic minorities a more integrated part of society they need to be assimilated.
Assimilation is the process of understanding and becoming part of something e.g. a community.
This is something we will look at in more depth at a later point

22. Social Exclusion What is social exclusion? How can it be measured
To what extent do migrants experience a sense of social exclusion? How could you find this out?
What is the impact of regeneration and other planned strategies on improving social exclusion? To what extent do these strategies exacerbate tensions between communities?

23. Social Exclusion
Social exclusion is a complex and multi-dimensional process. It involves the lack or denial of resources, rights, goods and services, and the inability to participate in the normal relationships and activities, available to the majority of people in a society, whether in economic, social, cultural or political arenas. It affects both the quality of life of individuals and the equity and cohesion of society as a whole.
