Berlin: Non-Orderly Spheres of Chaos. Remarks on the Margins of a Research Reconnaissance

Summary/Abstract: This text is an anthropological reflection on Berlin as a living laboratory of postmodernity – a dispersed, dynamic, and polyphonic city. The author sees Berlin not only as a physical space but also as a productof everyday practices, affects, rituals, and memory. He traces the figure of the regular – a mobile nomad who flows through the city, creating fleeting traces. Districts such as Neukölln, Kreuzberg, and Weddingare presented as transcultural microcosms where migrations, languages, and lifestyles intersect. The reflection also addresses new modes of navigation – from the sensual to the algorithmic –and the aesthetic and symbolic transformations of gentrification. Berlin emerges as a city where pastand future coexist, creating a space for an experimental community without unity. It is not an object of research, but a partner in dialogue that transforms the researcher’s thinking and language.
