Transnationales ethnisches Unternehmertum. Das Fallbeispiel türkischstämmiger Unternehmer in Duisburg-Marxloh
Within the debate of transnational migration the phenomenon of transnational ethnic entrepreneurship is gaining in importance. Transnational ethnic entrepreneurship—in comparison to the already widely-discussed “traditional” ethnic economy—exhibits special features, i.e. its integration into cross-border production and distribution networks as well as modes of transnational living and working. On basis of an explorative study of Turkish entrepreneurs in Duisburg-Marxloh (Germany), the paper discusses different forms of intensity of transnational ethnic entrepreneurship concerning actor-specific and structural characteristics. It also illustrates the importance of transnational ethnic entrepreneurship for the local economy and the general development of the city quarter. Three “generations” of transnational ethnic entrepreneurship as well as three intensity-forms of transnational economic activities have been identified. Furthermore, the findings ascertain the entrepreneurs’ importance for the stabilization of the city quarter, regarding in particular its structural development as well as its image upgrading. At the same time the results show that the interconnection between transnational ethnic entrepreneurs as well as their integration into urban development strategies and institutional measures is on a low level. Transnational ethnic entrepreneurship as a strategic potential for urban development has yet not been fully explored, further research on this subject and planning action are required.
