Logan, T. D., & Parman, J. M. (2025). 'Racial Residential Segregation in the United States' Journal of Economic Literature, 63(3), 964–1010. doi: 10.1257/jel.20241373
The paper discusses how to measure segregation, what the drivers of segregation were and what the impact of segregation has been on demographic and economic outcomes. While the focus is on the United States, segregation is a feature of many cities and therefore has consequences for other historical contexts.
