Belfast, delte byer, sekterisk deling, fysisk deling, social delingResumé
Delte byer er efterhånden et særsyn i europæisk sammenhæng. Fænomenet er hovedsageligt resultat af geopolitiske forandringer, der har præget Europa de seneste to århundreder og udspringer af krige. Ikke mange har rod i en imperial fortid og de økonomiske skel mellem sociale grupper, som man ser det i Belfast. De mest dramatiske konsekvenser af delte byer er fysiske, dvs. voldelige konflikter og tab af liv. Manglende interaktion gør det vanskeligt at skabe fælles forudsætninger, selv mange år efter de voldelige konflikter er overstået. Artiklen undersøger de sociale barrierer, der opstod som følge af ”the troubles” – dvs. fra 1969 og fremefter – sammen med de fysiske barrierer og delinger, der præger byrummet i Belfast i dag. Det centrale spørgsmål er, om byens indbyggere taler eller er parate til at tale på basis af fælles forudsætninger og fortælle de samme historier og diskurser om delingerne, der har præget byen igennem næsten 50 år. Eller er kløften stadig en del af det sociale setup i dagens Belfast?
