Postmigrant Club Cultures in Urban Europe

Kosnick presents students, academics, and researchers with a collection of academic essays and articles focused on the participation of contemporary young people of migrant backgrounds in social leisure activities in European cities. The five contributions that make up the main body of the text are focused on new post-migrant socialities in urban Europe, navigating through European urban nightlife as a racialised body, the social and spatial dimensions of French Caribbean clubbing in Paris, the rise of the black LGBTQ clubbing scene in Paris, and race, space, and place in the LGBTQ British-Asian dance club scene in London.
