The Ministry of the Interior, Housing and the Elderly published today, Friday, the new annual list of parallel communities (ghetto) and unstable residential areas (Udsatte boligområder).
وللمرة الأولى منذ 13 عاماً لم تعد المنطقة السكنية Mjølnerparken في Nørrebro في كوبنهاجن مدرجة في قائمة الحكومة للمجتمعات الموازية، المعروفة سابقًا باسم قائمة الغيتو ghetto ، وذلك لأن من أحد شروط تصنيف منطقة سكنية ما على أنها “مجتمع موازي” هو أن يكون عدد السكان 1000 نسمة على الأقل كنقطة انطلاق، وبما أن سكان Mjølnerparken يقل حالياً عددهم عن هذا الرقم تخرج Mjølnerparken من القائمة، وذلك على الرغم من استمرار الظروف المتعلقة بعدد المدانين بجرائم جنائية وانخفاض نسبة التعليم والدخل، وبالمقابل فقد ارتفع عدد المناطق السكنية في قائمة المجتمعات الموازية (قائمة الغيتو) بحسب القوائم الجديدة للمناطق السكنية الضعيفة والمجتمعات الموازية التي نشرتها وزارة الشؤون الاجتماعية والإسكان والمسنين اليوم الجمعة. وبالنسبة لمنطقة Mjølnerparken فلا يزال يتعين عليها الاستمرار في تنفيذ خطة التنمية وتقليل نسبة المنازل العائلية مقارنة بإجمالي عدد المنازل في المنطقة.
According to the ministry, the decrease in the population of Mjølnerparken may be due to the fact that the area is in the process of a plan under which the share of family homes must be reduced to 40% out of the total number of homes in the area by 2030.
parallel society
It is understood that a parallel society means a public residential area with at least 1000 residents, where the proportion of immigrants and people of non-Western descent exceeds 50%, and where at least two of the following four criteria are met:
- The proportion of the population aged 18 to 64 who are not in the labor market or education exceeds 40%, calculated as an average over the past two years.
- The proportion of the population convicted of violating criminal law, gun law, or intoxicants law is at least three times the national average calculated as an average over the past two years.
- The proportion of the population aged between 30 and 59 who have only received primary education exceeds 60%.
- The average gross income of taxpayers aged 15-64 in the region (excluding education seekers) is 55% lower than the average gross income for the same group in the region.

وبحسب المصدر فعندما تكون منطقة سكنية على قائمة المجتمعات الموازية لمدة خمس سنوات، يتم تعريفها في التشريع على أنها “منطقة التحول”، والتي تم تعريفها سابقًا على أنها “مناطق الغيتو الصعبة”، ما يجعلها تتبع ساسية تسمى “التفريغ المرن”، الذي يعطي الأولوية لطالبي السكن في التعليم والعمل لتقليل السكان ذوي التعليم المنخفض والدخل المنخفض.

The European Court of Justice is considering a case brought by residents of Mjølnerparken against the state for discrimination.
According to TV2, residents of Mjølnerparken have criticized the development plan, which was supposed to remove the area from the ghetto list, over the past few years. This includes the decision to sell two of the four residential complexes in the area to the real estate company NREP. A number of residents chose to file a lawsuit against what was then called the Ministry of the Interior and Housing, believing that the development plan in the 2018 Ghetto Act discriminated against them on the basis of their ethnicity. As a result of the plan, many residents were forced to leave the area where they had lived for many years. Last year, the Eastern High Court decided to refer the case to the European Court of Justice against the Ministry of the Interior and Housing, where a decision is expected in 2024. After that, the case will return to the Danish court.
