CROSSING THE BORDERLINE: <br>Globalisation and Social Exclusion: The Sociology of Vindictiveness <br>and the Criminology of Transgression: "The tendencies towards economic division and social exclusion now characteristic of America do seem to be hardening both in Britain and Western Europe. The racial and ethnic element here is prominent. In cities such as London, Manchester, Rotterdam, Frankfurt, Paris and Naples the position of the urban poor is worsening. Hamburg is Europe’s richest city, as measured by average personal income, and has the highest proportion of millionaires in Germany. It also has the highest proportion on welfare and unemployment – 40 per cent above the national average. A third of industrial jobs in and around the city have disappeared in the fifteen years up to 1994.'"?CLASS-INEQUALITY?
