Neighborhoods have the power to form significant parts of our worlds and identities. A neighborhood's reputation however doesn t always match up to how residents see themselves or wish to be seen. The distance between residents desires and their environment can profoundly shape neighborhood life. In A Good Reputation sociologists Elizabeth Korver - Glenn and Sarah Mayorga delve into the development and transformation of the reputation of Northside a predominantly Latinx barrio in Houston. Drawing on two years of ethnographic research and in - depth interviews with residents developers and other neighborhood stakeholders the authors show that people's perceptions of their neighborhoods are essential to understanding urban inequality and poverty. Korver - Glenn and Mayorga's empirically detailed account of disputes over neighborhood reputation helps readers understand the complexity of high - poverty urban neighborhoods demonstrating that gentrification is a more complicated and irregular process than existing accounts of urban inequality would suggest. Offering insightful theoretical analysis and compelling narrative threads from understudied communities A Good Reputation will yield insights for scholars of race and ethnicity urban planning and beyond.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: A Good Reputation How Residents Fight For An American Barrio\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Mayorga Sarah\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: The University Of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780226833859\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 208 Pages, 14 Halftones, 1 Tables\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 5\/28\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Sociology \u0026amp; Anthropology","brand":"Mayorga Sarah","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49593442337073,"sku":"IN-G-9780226833859","price":33.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780226833859.jpg?v=1724338962","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780226833859-a-good-reputation-how-residents-fight-for-an-american-barrio","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
