Harlem Supers (eBook, PDF)

The Social Life of a Community in Transition

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Superintendents play a large role in the formation of relationships and networks within their neighborhood; and yet, no study in social science has focused on them. Williams closes this knowledge gap through ethnographic fieldwork, providing an in-depth analysis of the daily life of superintendents in the lower Harlem area in New York City.
