The local space has a constituting impact on the construction of identities and the feeling of belongingness particularly of the descendants of migrants. In this paper I discuss the ways in which local spatial experiences are implicated in the process of identity formation of British Asian youth in Bradford. The youth, experience, demarcate, and utilise the local space for their self-definition. The discussion considers the contextuality of the positioning of those youth within the culturally, socially and territorially marked urban space. The youth define their belongingness according to their experiences of and within this local space. Their understanding of locality incorporates various though intertwined articulations of socially, culturally and emotionally marked spatial space. The boundaries of those localities are blurred or overlapping. They are constructed by the youth in context, as are their identifications with different notions of locality. This is at times expressed through territorialized local politics and actions.

Britanya'daki Asyalı Gençlik, Kent Protestoları ve Yerel Aidiyetler

Yerel mekanın özellikle göçmen kökenli gençlerin aidiyet duyguları ve kimlik inşaları üzerinde önemli bir etkisi vardır. Bu makalede yerel mekan deneyimlerinin Britanya-Asyalı gençlerin kimlik oluşum sürecini nasıl etkilediğini tartışacağım. Gençler yerel mekanı deneyimlemekte, sınırlarını belirlemekte ve öz-tanımları için kullanmaktadırlar. Tartışma bu gençlerin kültürel, sosyal ve bölgesel olarak belirlenmiş bir mekan içinde bağlamsal konumlanmalarını da içermektedir. Gençler aidiyetlerini bu yerel mekandaki deneyimlerine göre tanımlamaktadırlar. Onların mekan anlayışları farklı ama iç içe geçmiş sosyal, kültürel ve duygusal öğelerle yüklenmiş ifadeleri kapsamaktadır. Bu mekanların sınırları bulanıktır ve birbirleriyle örtüşürler. Bu farklı mekanlar ve mekanlarla özdeşleşmeler gençler tarafından bağlamsal olarak inşa edilirler. Bu durum bazen bölgeselleştirilmiş (territorialized) yerel politikalar ve eylemler yoluyla ifade edilir.
