Μουσαφεράτ: η μετανάστευση στη σύγχρονη Ελλάδα: η περίπτωση της Παλιάς Κοκκινιάς

Abstract

Modern cities have always been a complex mosaic of social groups with different national and cultural elements. With the increase in globalization, multiculturalism will be intensified in a continuous population displacement - migration. Immigration is not a problem that needs solving, as considered nowadays. It is a complex social and spatial process that requires understanding, intervention and regulation. Our country, however, for various reasons which will be discussed below, has imposed the strategy of settlement, and as it does not go along with the nature of migration, arises the need of representing it as a problem. Purpose of this paper is to study this process, in the level of government intervention, and the level of "everyday coexistence". Through the example of Palia Kokkinia, we seek to explore how migration affects and is affected by space, revealing what is called "social space".
