    Abstract

    In this paper, I set out to explore the (sometimes subtle) ways in which ’the ghetto’ and ’the street’
    – the margin of the state (Das and Poole, 2004; Johansen and Jensen, 2017) – materialize within the
    kindergarten as a Danish welfare institution, blurring the boundaries between institution and locality
    and influencing the everyday pedagogical practices.
