RINKEBY



Rinkeby is a resident block bulid up at about 1970`s at the east part of Stockholm.It is build in 5 years which means a really short time from make the decision to finish the project. The structure of the block is quite functional with a ring main road and branch road to every house. The facades somehow shows the background of unified manufactory of the building. Actually, the ugly facades make it unpopular among dwellers. So local inhabitant begin to move out of this place.

In another way, due to the low pavement of rent, this area atract a lot of imigrants to replace the local inhabitants. They come from different conutrys with different colour of skin, language and lifestyle.
Thus, they become the new dominate of this place. The diversity of culture brings inevitable conflicts. The racial or the language deepen the segregation of mainstream social which lead a further inequality of career oppotunity. These together increase the crimial rateof this area as the newspaper always describe it as the worst place in stockholm.

But, actually it is not always true with this discriminate view. In another way, it can be oppotunity of the city as it is the most active place of diversity culture. It could be better if municipal government pay more attention to it.



The diversity brings another problem——language on education, espcially on primanary education. So, we can see a lot of schools here. Using variety of language for different students from different countrys.
