Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | Aus der Ankündigung der Neuauflage 1993: Ground-breaking when first published in 1945, 'Black Metropolis' remains a landmark study of race and urban life. Based on a mass of research conducted by Works Progress Administration field workers in the late 1930s, it is a historical and sociological account of the people of Chicago's South Side, the classic urban ghetto. Drake and Cayton's findings not only offer a generalized analysis of black migration, settlement, community structure, and black-white race relations in the early part of the twentieth century, but also tell us what has changed in the last hundred years and what has not. |
