Abstract: After the fall of the Berlin Wall, Berlin has witnessed a great change. But a district in Berlin has been the symbol of this change: Kreuzberg. Once had been a ghetto just bordering the Wall, Kreuzberg found itself just in the center of the city after the fall. This research tries to understand Kreuzberg as a transnational space and its transformation after the unification of Germany, 1989.
