Räumliche Nähe und soziale Distanz in Fällen von vertikaler Segregation

Nicht angegeben.This dissertation discusses the relation between social distance and spatial proximity. Vertical segregation is used as the theoretical construct under which the interrelation is investigated. Vertically ethnically and socially differentiated residential buildings in central Athens are used as case studies representing examples of social mix. Nevertheless, a plexus of social and spatial dimensions reveal alternative forms of marginalization, inequality, exclusion and hence distances which remarkably combat spatial nearness. Segregation is investigated qualitatively while diverse social groups might not be as close to each other as they seem
