Urbanization and Its Problems in Kyrgyzstan: The Case of Bishkek

Öz

This study examines the perception of not owning a red book (title deed) in terms of social and urban integration in the shantytown areas of Bishkek. The research was conducted in four of the 47 neighbourhoods located on the outskirts of Bishkek. A combination of quantitative and qualitative research methods was employed, encompassing surveys (416), interviews (25), and observational techniques. This janykonushes (slum) study reveals that a certain population living in informal settlements, due to their lack of official status, does not have adequate access to basic services such as education, healthcare, infrastructure (transportation, water, electricity, etc.), security, environmental health, and social amenities (children’s parks, green spaces). The field study revealed that the absence of a red book results in public exclusion and delays social integration in the city. It was concluded that the government and local authorities must work within a programme framework to find solutions related to informal settlements in order to integrate Janykonushneighborhood residents into the city. The longer solution-oriented policies and practices are delayed, the greater the risk that the integration problem will grow and become entrenched.
