What undergirds pro-diversity perspectives among those who live in rapidly diversifying cities? Conversely, what are their limits, and what groups are excluded? The Diversity Assent (DivA) project was designed to understand the foundations and mechanisms underlying the acceptance of socio-demographic heterogeneity on multiple dimensions in cities located both in West and East Germany. Two core motivations underlie the project. So far, we insufficiently understand what motivates those who oppose right- wing positions – usually a majority among inhabitants of cities in Germany and other Western European countries. Second, this project builds on a previous large-scale project of the Socio-Cultural Diversity department at MPI-MMG, “Diversity and Contact”. In particular, it explores to what extent attitudes and patterns of interaction have changed, or remained constant, in the decade from 2010 to 2020, which was a time of major ruptures and political polarization. We designed a large telephone survey of 2,917 respondents asking a set of interrelated questions on dispositions towards diversity, everyday experiences and diversification dynamics. This includes a set of survey experiments designed to tap and measure social norms of tolerance.How do people living in contemporary Germany react to diversification in their every- day life?

DeutschlandDeutschland Grundgesamtheit der Studie bildet die in Privathaushalten lebende Bevölkerung ab 18 Jahren in 20 ausgewählten Städten. Die Umfrage ist bevölkerungsdisproportional angelegt, die Verteilung der Interviews auf die einzelnen Städte entspricht also nicht deren Bevölkerungsanteil. Es wurden jedoch drei Städtegruppen in Abhängigkeit von ihrer Größenklasse gebildet, die mit je 50, 140 bzw. 500 Interviews in der Stichprobe vertreten sein sollten. Darüber hinaus wurden die Städte entsprechend ihres Migrationsanteils ebenfalls in drei Gruppen unterteilt. Hier war es das Ziel, in der jeweiligen Gruppe insgesamt 30 bzw. 100 bzw. 500 Interviews mit Personen mit Migrationshintergrund durchzuführen.
