20.500.12556/RUL-170705 There is KR, Republic of Kosovo, not KR, Kranj! Catastrophe! (Atje është KR, Kosova Republikë, jo KR, Kranj! Katastrofë!) An anthropological study of identity, community, and mediation Obstaja KR, Republika Kosovo, ni KR, Kranj! Katastrofa! Antropološka študija identitete, skupnosti in posredovanja This thesis examines the experiences of Albanian migrants, primarily from Kosovo, as they navigate Slovenian society, and explores how the local community in Slovenia responds to their presence. The fieldwork material was collected mainly in Kranj (as the primary ethnographic fieldwork) and Ljubljana (as secondary ethnographic fieldwork). The role of intercultural mediators, who serve as facilitators between Albanians from Kosovo and Slovenian individuals, is central to this study. The author sheds extra light on real-life examples and on how members of the local community interact with these intercultural mediators, their interactions with local institutions, and the challenges they encounter in their line of work. Despite being a relatively new and emerging profession in Slovenia, intercultural mediation holds its own significance and is essential to this study, as it broadens our scope and understanding of more complex problems such as unemployment, language and cultural barriers, racism, the assimilation process, and gender stereotypes. The purpose of the thesis is to highlight the inconveniences that arise in the process of integration and institutional support by focusing on the problematic issues in these areas. More importantly, it aims to offer new insights into how to reshape society’s beliefs in order to bridge this cultural divide. Diplomsko delo obravnava izkušnje albanskih migrantov, predvsem s Kosova, pri njihovem krmarjenju po slovenski družbi in raziskuje, kako se lokalna skupnost v Sloveniji odziva na njihovo prisotnost. Terensko gradivo je bilo zbrano predvsem v Kranju (kot primarno etnografsko terensko delo) in Ljubljani (kot sekundarno etnografsko terensko delo). Vloga medkulturnih mediatorjev, ki so posredniki med Albanci s Kosova in slovenskimi posamezniki, je v tej študiji osrednjega pomena. Avtorica dodatno osvetljuje primere iz resničnega življenja in kako pripadniki lokalne skupnosti sodelujejo s temi medkulturnimi mediatorji, kakšne so njihove interakcije z lokalnimi institucijami in s kakšnimi izzivi se srečujejo pri svojem delu. Kljub temu, da je medkulturna mediacija v Sloveniji relativno nov in nastajajoč poklic, ima svoj pomen, ki je bistven za to študijo, saj nam odpira prostor in razumevanje kompleksnejših problemov, kot so: brezposelnost, jezikovne in kulturne ovire, rasizem, proces asimilacije in spolni stereotipi. Namen diplomske naloge je poudariti nevšečnosti, ki se pojavljajo v procesu vključevanja in institucionalne podpore, s poudarkom na problematičnih vprašanjih na teh področjih. Še pomembneje pa je ponuditi nova spoznanja o tem, kako preoblikovati družbena prepričanja, da bi premostili ta kulturni prepad. intercultural mediation Kranj Albanian migrants social exclusion local institutions medkulturna mediacija Kranj albanski migranti socialna izključenost lokalne institucije. true false false Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Magistrsko delo/naloga 2025-07-13 08:15:34 2025-07-13 08:15:39 2025-07-15 03:36:32 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 0000-00-00 NiDoloceno NiDoloceno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 1970-01-01 582777 51743.pdf 51743.pdf 1 9B582E840438F7F8A5C4D4DC4C52EA7D 70c91f0f66562ce5c1337c3ae8daaa1ee8c152a21c2d1afdd05320df441a2590 de504c30-5fae-11f0-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=212756 Filozofska fakulteta 0 0 0
