Interview by Kathrin Golda-Pongratz for urbanNext.

Filmed in Madrid, Spain.

In this short excerpt of a filmed interview with anthropologist and professor Teresa Caldeira, we learn how the model of negotiating the settlements of new immigrants in cities like Istanbul has changed over time, with gentrification processes and big capital winning the battles of today. We also learn about the importance of community organisations in the struggle against urban segregation.
