Abstract

The first metropolitan area to discuss is Amsterdam. This case is best known to us and therefore is very suitable for explaining which methods, which concepts, and which system were used in the discussions of the cases. We will also use this chapter to show some effects of choice of areas and spatial scale, and we will discuss the consequences of using various definitions of concept. Before we focus our attention on Amsterdam, in the next section we will first give a brief picture of immigration in the Netherlands in the past decades.
