Would be interesting to hear Puttnam's take on the second study given it comes out of the actual school that funded Bowling Alone where Puttnam is a Professor.

As for the question I love that Puttnam gave us a good scholarly work to confirm the truth about diversity but you don't really need studies to see the negative impacts diversity has. You just need to live in a diverse area and walk outside.

I guess it's also really important to clarify exactly what kind of diversity you're talking about. Polish migrants to Britain I'm sure didn't change much about the social cohesion in Britain and probably didn't have a profoundly negative impact on the native population outside of labour competition, wage reduction and competition for housing, schooling and health care services. However African and Arab Islamic migration always without fail represents incredible problems for the host nations in which they arrive for a variety of factors all of us know.

The second study found the exact opposite. Someone just lied about it.

Second, we find that subjects who are paired with a partner of a different race or nationality send back less money to their partner. Eleven out of the twelve times in which the recipient sent back nothing, the sender and the recipient were of different races. These effects are stronger than the social network effects and survive controls for the social connection of the sender and recipient. This finding is also unsurprising, but serves as a reminder of the continuing barriers that racial and national differences may create” (p.814)
