Description
How do Palestinian immigrants perceive and use the public
space in the city of Berlin? Is their perception and use of
space homogenous as a group? What are the main patterns of
their socio-spatial practices in public spaces? How do they
influence the urban landscape of the neighborhoods in which
they live? Which factors play a role in their perception and
use of public space and how do the hybrid identities of the
second and third generations affect their socio-spatial
behavior in comparison to the first generation? This book
aims to present a study about Palestinian immigrants in
Berlin and answer these questions and more about Palestinian
identity, socio-spatial practices and use of public space.
