      ab: Part of a special issue on migration politics. The writer investigates the relationship between cultural differences and social upward and downward mobility. He considers the multiple layers of the term diversity, which explain part of its appeal, before attempting to connect cultural diversity to boundary making and the production of social inequality via social mechanisms. He then discusses transnationality, an emerging field of study, as a characteristic of diversity. Finally, the writer addresses political contestation and the role of the distinctions drawn by social scientists around diversity and social inequalities.
