Abstract:Social integration of immigrants has become an important goal purposed by worldwide cities in the context of increasing social mobility. Inter-group social cohesion between migrants and local residents has been a new theme of Chinese urban studies. Urban planning and geography have long emphasized the impact of public space on social cohesion, focusing on the inclusiveness attitude fostered by encounters in public space. However, international literature has debated on the mechanism of public space and migrants' social integration in the context of individual mobility. Drawing on the theoretical and methodological basis from time geography and the activity-based approach, this study constructs a holistic research framework to understand the relationships among mobility-based public space exposures, activity-mobility patterns, and social integration outcomes of migrants. Based on three dimensions of space, time and behavior, this framework constructs the continuous individual activity-trip chain in multiple spatial contexts, hoping to reveal the inter-group social interaction and social cohesion effect of public space in different time scales. This study also contributes to the inclusive urbanization strategy in China.
