The Urban Refugee in Marzahn-Hellersdorf: Best Practices for Refugee Integration in Challenging Environments
The Urban Refugee in Marzahn-Hellersdorf: Best Practices for Refugee Integration in Challenging Environments MA Thesis in European Studies Graduate School for Humanities Universiteit van Amsterdam Akudo McGee 11757507 Main supervisor: Dr. Luiza Bialasiewicz Second supervisor: Dr. Christian Noack June 2018 0 Abstract Assembled amongst the backdrop of one of the largest forced migration events in recorded history, this thesis employs a multidisciplinary approach to understand contemporary refugee integration. Rather than simply reengaging with scholarly discourse, this thesis seeks to move beyond theoretical ideas of refugee integration in the most hospitable environments and identify best practices for environments that are challenging for refugee integration. In order to do so, the Marzahn-Hellersdorf district of Berlin, Germany was used as a case study and the integrative initiatives operating in the area were assessed according to the longstanding integration theories of Doug Saunders, Hartmut Esser and Rainer Bauböck. A contemporary understanding of how these theories on integration may be concretely implemented required the use of action plans developed by the Berlin government, integration goals set by the German government and engagement with initiative leaders in the target district. To investigate these matters, this thesis makes use of ethnographic research, interviews, fieldwork, historical research and urban studies. The aptitude of urban environments, specifically to facilitate intercultural exchange was the partial focus of this thesis as well, since the manipulation of these exchanges is one of many ways to encourage integration. The conclusions for this research are practical and include the improvement of district-specific services in Marzahn-Hellersdorf, additional psychological support for refugees, neighborhood-wide initiatives that address the needs of residents in tandem with those of refugees and overall ideological changes to the perceptions of the individual actors involved in the integration process. -

Berliners waiting for the tram on a rainy day in 1928. (Photo: German Federal Archives). Newsletter Editors: Samuel Merrill, Andrey Vozyanov and Robin Kellermann ‘Anniversary’ ‘View from the Street’ ‘In the Spotlight’ 150 years of Berlin trams Logistics in Finland Oksana Zaporozhets Page 3 Page 9 Page 14 1 ; Newsletter Volume XII -No 2 July 2015 Editorial Dear readers, the four months between each issue of the T2M newsletter is tricky to negotiate – as a length of time it is too long to allow the editing and compiling of materials to become routine, yet still short enough for us, as editors, to feel surprised by the rapid passing of time and the realisation that another issue is once again due! So welcome to the July 2015 issue, which hopefully will find many of you taking advantage of that more relaxed pause between academic terms, however already within sight of our Joint Conference with the Cosmobilities Network under Italy’s September sun. Along with several calls and journal summaries, the issue features an essay on logistics in Finland, “the small nation of long distances”, contributed by Ilkka Tapio Seppinen. Our interviewee for the ‘In the Spotlight’ section is Oksana Zaporozhets, who tells us about her research on subways in Russia’s biggest cities. ‘The View from the Street’ segment, meanwhile, is provided by Stefan Kohl and covers the 150th anniversary of Berlin’s trams. Reading Ilkka and Stefan’s pieces in this issue has a particular poignancy for some of us because they are the outcome of Sam Merrill’s last editorial efforts as part of the newsletter team.
