abstract: Social unequality and social differences of a population can be defined as social structure. The objective of this study is the construction of indices with which an analysis of space-related social disparities from their spacious dimensions can be made. Each dimension has to be described with a multitude of space-related social indicators first, and then identified and calculated with a multivariate statistic procedure (Factor Analysis). With the existing analysis basic dates are provided. This information about the social situation of Berlin districts as well as the resulting political plannings shall contribute to the reduction of existing differences, in particular to the reduction of social disadvantages. In general, decisions regarding allocation on the private as well as on the public sector should be supported by the social structure analysis.
