Abstract: |
The central structure of the chapter consists of the concepts of Identity versus Otherness, with axes of sustainable development and urban sociology. The theoretical framework is approached from urban sociology and the sociology of culture, with an emphasis on theories of identity to outline the characteristics of the active social agents and groups. Athens is chosen as the case study, focusing on its historical center and the periphery of the municipality of Athens, where a variety of different social groups with strong and diverse characteristics are active. Specifically, migratory flows with strong multicultural elements and tourist flows shape the city's map, causing a series of tensions, including xenophobia and nationalism, but also tolerance of otherness and solidarity. These dynamics will be illuminated within the broader institutional approach to sustainable development.
