Recent studies show that immigration remains a top concern for Germans, with
46% expressing doubts that refugees can successfully integrate into German
society. But what determines the successful integration of refugees? And what
shapes their willingness to integrate into German society? Through qualitative
interviews with both refugees and migrants, I investigate the relationship
between their experience with discrimination and integration in Berlin.
Importantly, I demonstrate how one’s appearance, ethnicity, religion, and so
forth, can influence one’s experience with discrimination and integration
trajectory; and through the multiple subjectivities I uncover, I show how
complex the project of integration actually is. Additionally, by juxtaposing
the experiences of post-2015 refugees with those of earlier Turkish and Arab
immigrants, I highlight how the poor integration of earlier immigrants can
adversely affect the integration of subsequent immigrants. Taken together,
these insights challenge the image of Berlin as a cosmopolitan city. We extend
our heartfelt thanks to the Vahabzadeh Foundation for financially supporting
the publication of best works by young researchers of the Graduate Institute,
giving a priority to those who have been awarded academic prizes for their
master’s dissertations.
