Description
An account of the resource
The homeless have the legal right to exist in modern American cities, yet antihomeless ordinances deny them access to many public spaces. How did previous generations of urban dwellers deal with the tensions between the rights of the homeless and those of other city residents? Ella Howard answers this question by tracing the history of skid rows from their rise in the late nineteenth century to their eradication in the mid-twentieth century.
Focusing on New York's infamous Bowery, Homeless analyzes the efforts of politicians, charity administrators, social workers, urban planners, and social scientists as they grappled with the problem of homelessness. The development of the Bowery from a respectable entertainment district to the nation's most infamous skid row offers a lens through which to understand national trends of homelessness and the complex relationship between poverty and place. Maintained by cities across the country as a type of informal urban welfare, skid rows anchored the homeless to a specific neighborhood, offering inhabitants places to eat, drink, sleep, and find work while keeping them comfortably removed from the urban middle classes. This separation of the homeless from the core of city life fostered simplistic and often inaccurate understandings of their plight. Most efforts to assist them centered on reforming their behavior rather than addressing structural economic concerns.
By midcentury, as city centers became more valuable, urban renewal projects and waves of gentrification destroyed skid rows and with them the public housing and social services they offered. With nowhere to go, the poor scattered across the urban landscape into public spaces, only to confront laws that effectively criminalized behavior associated with abject poverty. Richly detailed, Homeless lends insight into the meaning of homelessness and poverty in twentieth-century America and offers us a new perspective on the modern welfare system.
Ella Howard teaches urban history and material culture at Armstrong Atlantic State University.

Description
An account of the resource
Créée par un ancien journaliste du Baltimore Sun, David Simon, et un ancien policier, Ed Burns, et scénarisée par des grands noms du roman noir américain, la série américaine The Wire est devenue culte. S'appuyant sur des investigations de terrain de plusieurs années, elle décrit finement la réalité sociale, économique et politique des habitants du « ghetto » de Baltimore. Consacrée « meilleure ethnographie jamais réalisée de l'Amérique urbaine contemporaine » par le sociologue William Julius Wilson, saluée par Time Magazine ou le New York Post comme étant la meilleure série de l'histoire de la télévision américaine, elle est un outil efficace de discussion et de débats autour des problématiques qui parcourent les quartiers populaires. Elle sert aujourd'hui de support à de nombreux cours sur la ville ou sur les inégalités sociales aux États-unis.
Pourquoi un tel succès ? Que peuvent nous apprendre les médias de masse sur la société et, ce faisant, comment interpellent-ils les sciences sociales ? Que donne à voir la série des quartiers populaires américains, au service de quel message social et politique ? Quelle en est la réception française et un The Wire hexagonal serait-il possible ? Telles sont les questions discutées par cet ouvrage pluridisciplinaire, au croisement des études cinématographiques et sérielles, de la sociologie, de l'urbanisme et de la science politique.
