Initiated in 1988 by the Grune (Green) faction of the Berlin Public Media Council as the programme 'for and about the city's immigrants', Radio MultiKulti has since come under the independent co-management of Berlin's major immigrant groups and has gained city-wide prestige and recognition as the 'alternative' source of cultural entertainment and political information. The paper examines the programmes of the Polish section of Radio MultiKulti in terms of recognition politics or claims for public recognition of Berlin's (and Germany's) de facto multiculturalism. The assessment of Polish Radio MultiKulti is based on the author's interviews with members of the editorial staff and the content analysis of the radio's programmes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
