Description

As the largest national group of guest workers in Germany, the Turks became a visible presence in local neighbourhoods and schools and had diverse social, cultural, and religious needs. Focussing on West Berlin, Sarah Thomsen Vierra explores the history of Turkish immigrants and their children from the early days of their participation in the post-war guest worker program to the formation of multi-generational communities. Both German and Turkish sources help to uncover how the first and second generations created spaces of belonging for themselves within and alongside West German society, while also highlighting the factors that influenced that process, from individual agency and community dynamics to larger institutional factors such as educational policy and city renovation projects. By examining the significance of daily interactions at the workplace, in the home, in the neighbourhood, and in places of worship, we see that spatial belonging was profoundly linked to local-level daily life and experiences.

Author Biography:

Sarah Thomsen Vierra is an assistant professor of history at New England College of Henniker, New Hampshire. She received her doctorate in European history from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and was granted the Fritz Stern Dissertation Prize by the German Historical Institute in 2012. In addition, she has contributed chapters on West Berlin's Turkish community, the influence of the Cold War on the guest worker program, and migration in modern German history more broadly to edited volumes. Her research interests include migration, ethnic and religious minorities in European society, and everyday history.
