Abstract It is difficult to exaggerate the importance for urban and social studies of Loïc Wacquant’s work (and indeed its relevance to political debate). As a contribution to bringing out and following up the importance of his most recent book, Urban Outcasts: A Comparative Sociology of Advanced Marginality, we have already published eight assessments (11:3, pp. 357-421), to which we now add Sako Musterd’s paper, ‘Diverse Poverty Neighbourhoods: Reflections on Urban Outcasts’. We intend to publish Wacquant’s response in 12.2.
