Melbourne was founded in 1837 on the southeast of Australia. Nowadays, the city comprises nearly four million residents. Initially, the majority of the population was of Anglican origins; however, in the present-day situation, ‘Australia’s population is largely composed of immigrants and their descendants, who have heavily outnumbered the indigenous population’ (Bradshaw 2013). After the Second World War, there was a period of prosperity, rapid economic development, and industrialization that attracted a large number of migrants from many countries. First of all, the migrants from the northern Europe have entered the country. Then, the former citizens of Greece, Italy, Middle East, and Asia have joined them (Boumankhar 2011). The religious heterogeneity always was a distinct feature of Melbourne. The first residents were primarily Anglicans, but nowadays Catholic Christians constitute the dominant group. According to statistic data, ethnically diverse representatives of Melbourne’s population identify themselves as Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus, Baptists, and Jews. Despite the intense diversity and the constant religious shifts throughout the 20 th century, the level of ‘inter-religious harmony’ in Melbourne remains relatively high (Bouma 2015). There are multiple socio-cultural factors that induce the creation of the peaceful environment in the society and that are conditioned by the historical events in the country. Throughout the history, Melbourne’s officials attempted to manage religious diversity and resolve the conflicts between the diverse groups. For example, in the religious experience of the city of the 19 th century, there were tensions between Catholics and Protestants which were imported to the continent by Irish and British, who felt hostility towards each other. However, the government resolved the problem by adopting legislation forbidding the organized violence (Pakulski 2014). There is a large number of social organizations and institutions that promote the social and religious harmony in Melbourne as well: educational systems, social services, and legal system (Bugg 2012). For example, multiculturalism is one of the most significant policies adopted by the Australian government. The main purpose of the policy is in the provision of assistance for the immigrants for a better integration into a local culture (Melleuish 2010). Multiculturalism supports the cultural and social diversification, promotes equality regardless the differences in the ethnic background, religion, and race. Reinforcement of the policy by the official organizations raises the public awareness about the importance of the acceptance of diversity. Therefore, it is possible to say that multiculturalism is the official Australian ideology. Religious Diversification in Urban Context Melbourne is a highly urbanized city. The socio-cultural factors can be effectively applied in the context of the population distribution or location. The governmental management of religious diversity implies the processes and activities that take place in particular space. For example, the spatial arrangement of the populace residence influences various social and cultural processes such as social interrelations (Knott 2009). As it was already mentioned, Melbourne is an extremely di
