The project title Rejection Episodes is derived from the science of
medicine: Immune cells may cause serious damage in order to protect the body
from any medical intervention by triggering rejection episodes. The immune
system functions by distinguishing between cells it recognizes as 'self' and
foreign material. The occurrence of these episodes is totally instinctive.
Similarly, a social rejection may also be instinctive and beyond reasoning.
The project has been developed by detecting such social cases; the emphasis
is mostly on Turkish cases in the context of urban culture, and particular
ones experienced through/by Turks in Belgium.
