which power? when
in the research
process?
Outcome: lady at the bus stop:
-The people in this small hood are just all
old people, (like me)
- In the community house they always (like
here in the hood)
- When I want to see young people, I go to
the Hema (in the city centre)
I long for more contact, but here, in
the surroundings of my home, I do not
know how to deal with it.

- Deliberations about
things and doings; about

All the good things
come from theoutside
(shop owners )
All the good things
(and people) are
already here - no
gentrification
(social workers)
In the end-deliberation
one social worker tells
the two shop owners:
you guys are the only
ones here around the
table living in the hood;
you have houses here,
you rent them, you still
are investing here.Nevertheless you say
that nothing can be
expected from the
inside
And social workers in
their turn discover that
their assumption isnt
applying to themselves

neighbor-hood festivities)
Social workers do not live in the neighborhood but
elsewhere
we do not sell a thing to
those Turkish families (say a
majority of the shop owners)
Shop owners do not distribute
their promotion within the
hood but just outside it.
Some shop owners still live here, renovate their houses
they rent, rent to students and Turkish families.

All destinations with a positive
content (leisure time,
restaurants, gardening,) were

For centuries a military zone : no buildings allowed;
very wet grounds
District is a residual zonelocation for functions and
activities the inner city can or will not tolerate (
cemetery, sanitation; polluting industries; pestilent
houses; )
Second half 20the century: vacant parcels remain
vacant for 25 years and more.

2. Not enhancing uniformity but opening blind spots and getting aware ofone owns presuppositions
3. Learning to know the other (getting curious)
4. Bringing in the personal into the local public debate
5. Not about cohesion but about mutual understanding; better seeing thedifferences and helping each other to articulate them
