  • Culture as exclusion? [Elektronski vir] : migrants and exclusive spatial demarcation in the city
    Uršič, Matjaž, 1975-
    The main intention of the paper is to analyse the relationship between different groups of migrants and urban (public) spaces/places and environments in which they live. Some of the basic and ... simplified questions that could be formulated at this point are: How do the migrants 'use' urban space, for which purposes, with what intentions and why? What kind of resources (cultural, symbolic, ethnic, class) do they use when they try to penetrate into different segments of society and urban space? It is to discover the processes of cultural empowerment in an urban space - which culture actually dominates over different urban spaces and which are the potentials to develop diverse cultural identities in an urban space/place. These issues are presented on the case of Slovenia and especially its capital Ljubljana. Paper includes empirical evidence collected in various researches that were performed at the Centre for Spatial Sociology and other institutions dealing with urban and socio-cultural transformations in Slovenia.
