<p>The study is divided into three parts – the development of wage labour towards becoming the dominant norm in society, how this norm is challenged in a specific geographical context, and lastly a study of two unemployed individuals and their everyday activities, what and especially why certain behaviour occurs. The main purpose with the text is to study unemployed people in a specific geographical context in a overall society where wage labour is thought to be the norm.

Employment and unemployment is categorised as part of the same activity, in a perspective they share the same functions, the demand for spending time in the system and they constitute, in principle, the only ways of earning a living, the wage or unemployment benefit, which both comes with similar demands towards the individual.</p>

Författare: Sebastian Malmborg och Max BergHandledare: Karin Staffansson PauliBakgrund: I media framställs Möllevången som ett delområde i en pågående gentrifieringsprocess. Begreppet gentrifiering associeras med negativitet och segregation.Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att granska om den utveckling som skett på Möllevången är att klassas som gentrifiering och vilka effekter det medför på det givna området.Metod: Undersökningen bygger på sju intervjuer som är riktad till de intressenter författarna anser vara mest relevanta kring utvecklingen av Möllevången. Utöver detta har två enkätundersökningar utförts som riktar sig till de boende och fastighetsmäklare.Slutsatser: Författarna anser att Möllevången är i en pågående gentrifieringsprocess. Gentrifieringen är av naturlig karaktär och kommer därför till största sannolikhet fortlöpa. De goda effekter gentrifieringen av Möllevången medför innefattar förbättrade kommunikationsmöjligheter, ökad lokalservice, förbättrad näringslivsstruktur och ökade lokala skatteintäkter. Till följd av detta sker en allmän standardhöjning av området och dess tillhörande fastigheter och lägenheter belägna i Möllevången. De negativa effekter gentrifieringen av området medför en ökad segregation i form av bortträngningseffekter, främst gällande mindre kapitalstarka befolkningsgrupper och näringslivsverksamheter. Detta medför en stor risk för att områdets kultur rubbas, vilket är det som gör området unikt och attraktionskraftigt.Nyckelord: Gentrifiering, Möllevången, Malmö, Segregation, Citytunneln. / Title: The development of the neighborhood Möllevången- A survey about gentrification.Authors: Sebastian Malmborg & Max BergSupervisor: Karin Staffansson PauliBackground: The term gentrification is a current topic that often is associated with negativity and segregation. The media often associates the area Möllevången as an area that is in an ongoing gentrificationprocess.Method: This survey is based on seven interviews addressed to the operators of Möllevången. Two surveys were designed targeting the residents and realtors.Conclusions: The authors consider that Möllevången is under an ongoing natural gentrificationprocess, and is therefore most likely to proceed. The good effects caused by a gentrification of Möllevången includes improved communications, increased local services, improvement of the businesstructure and increased local tax revenues. As a result of the gentrification the general standard increases and so will properties and apartments located in the area. The negative effects caused by gentrification of Möllevången leads to higher levels of segregation in the form of displacement mainly concerning the low income group populations and traders with low turnovers. This causes a high risk of the area´s culture to be disturbed, which makes the area unique and attractive.Key Words: Gentrification, Möllevången, Malmö, Segregation, Citytunneln

Entrepreneurship among immigrants is steadily increasing in Europe and is playing an increasingly important role in the social and economic structure of European cities. In Malmö, Möllevången the ethnic businesses are continuingly thriving in the Swedish society. They fill a versatile and in many ways unique feature. They also fill gaps in the market; help to give new life to downturn urban areas, offering new products and services. But the questions are, are these immigrants forced to become entrepreneurs or have they chosen to be? What factors lie behind? How did they start their business in the beginning? To answer these questions, a qualitative method was used, where the semi- structured interviews with 5 respondents from different backgrounds were recorded, such as Iraq, Iran, Palestine, Poland and Serbia. The analysis and conclusion of this study showed that ethnic entrepreneurs both chose and were forced to enter self-employment. The five respondents mentioned several factors that had motivated them to self-employ, which are language barriers, discrimination, traditions, low wages, education and to be your own boss. The respondents did not follow theories used in this study about how entrepreneurs start their own business, but instead followed other stages that we call “Stages of starting your own for ethnic entrepreneurs”.
